This Is To My Father

Topic: oops




This Is To My Father

I can’t remember the last time I seen
His face
His name is the name my mother will never
Speak again
I can’t remember the last time he said I love you
I was young with a heart full of pain
The pain I never spoke of
The pain my mother never knew I had
The pieces of my heart that has been broken
The pieces that can no longer be put back together
All I can remember is the yelling & name-calling
Then it stop & he was gone
Out of my life, out of our lives
Then years later, he is here & with open arms
The heart is hole, but the tears still flow
The yelling & name-calling start all over again
I hell open its doors once again
He’s gone once more, out of my life
Once more he breaks my heart in two
My heart is broken now & forever
He gone, died with no words
Not a single good-bye or I love you
Now I know it ok to cry
To stop running from all my pain
To keep it lock up inside
But now I say these words to him
Even though it’s in a dream
I say, I love you daddy
I will always miss you
You ***** up my life, time after time
But yet I still love you
Cause I know you love me
Even though you left us
You left me
I still love
Most of all I thank you
Causes I still have all of the good memories
And for all of the pain I held inside
I can write it all down now
Thank you daddy for being my joy, my pain, and
My inspiration to write
To be a poet
The poet I am today
So, I love you, I hate you, & most of all
I Thank You
Truly now & forever
Daddy’s Little Girl
Solo

This poem is full of truth and emotion. From the heart of a little girl, lost, scared, frustrated, and wanting and needing her daddy's love. My mother and father fought also, and I loved my daddy so much. He passed when I was 10, and I thought my world would never be the same. Years later, my mind was flooded with memories, memories that I had suppressed for so long. My father had molested me. When I remembered this, I was so angry, but I still loved him. He had been gone for so many years, so I didn't have the opportunity to ask why, and maybe that's for t he best. I forgive him, and I will always love him. Makes me hold my children a little closer.
