You told me he is not my father,
You assured me that you are,
Yet why when I most need it,
He is close and you are far.

This is great work! Short, yes, but the words are strong enough to get their message across. All I can think of is "burn" on father who says he is the father.
This is so true to life in a lot of cases, even with is. Those we are closest to often get neglected by us, because they're always there, they're expendable, so we find someone else, a friend or mentor or etc. to get the help that we need. You did a great job of portraying this in the poem.
Like I said, very good, and I liked reading the four lines.
Thank you sherineahmed!
Hey there, review time.
I really like how brief this one is, it really works. As for the content, I have to admit that I love this. It's really well written, but it also speaks to me, and surely lots of other people. I have a step-dad whom I love as a father, who's so supportive and always around. Then, I have a biological father who I haven' seen in years, who never paid child support, who was never around. And yet, he thought he had a place to be mad that I called him by his name and my step-father "Dad". I'm sure this is really meaningful to lots of others, too. I really love it, keep it up!
One thing though, shouldn't the punctuation on the last line be a question mark?
Hey there, sherineahmed. Subtle here to review for ya!
Watch out for the 'i', it needs to be a capital I.This is a pretty short poem, but everybody seems to be writing short poems nowadays so I suppose it fits in pretty well. However, short poems are always risky but I love how you've written this one here. Is...very..different. But there is just one nitpick:
The ending though a bit cliche, ties up the poem effectively. So good job! Best of luck in your future writing!
