Daddy's little girl

Yesterday, do you remember?
Daddy’s little girl
I know you fear you’re losing me
And I fear I’m losing you too
I’m sorry that when you held out your hand
I wasn’t there to take it
I’m sorry that I grew up
Today you look at me
You see everything that went wrong
I walk away and look into the mirror
Deep down I know I’m right
Finally, it hits me hard in the back of the head
Daddy, can I still be your little girl?
Yesterday, I scraped my knee
I’m still running though, I’m still running
In fear of losing everything I finally grabbed onto
Some unstable child runs hysterically down the street
Screaming, “It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine!”
Tomorrow, I will wake up crying
As I lose myself in the emptiness of your stare
I can no longer tell if you really do care
Daddy, I’m still your little girl
I didn’t mean to hurt you so
I hate looking at myself
Because I’m scared
I’m so afraid I’ll fall apart and wither
Under my hateful, disgraced and above all, disappointed glare
Everything I touch seems to wilt at my tips
I cry, but not because I’m saddened
Label me, anything, just not “forsaken”
Everything I’ve named, you’ve taken
Daddy, please let me be your little girl
I lied, although it wilts and dies
Yesterday, do you remember?
I was Daddy’s little girl
Tomorrow I’ll make a wish to send
And then maybe Daddy will love me again.

Very well written. I find your rhyming in parts, refreshing and the overall context of this poem ensured that it be an engaging and personalised read.
Thankyou for sharing it with us. |
