Daddy's Little Girl Poem by Autum Foster

A fartherly figure my young life did lack,
Now for some reason, you thought you'd come back,
Tell me the truth, daddy, do you even care?
Tell me the truth, daddy, why were you never there?
All the broken promises, the love you never gave,
All the lies you told me, daddy, you'll take them to your grave,
There was only so much a child could take,
You told me you'd never make the same mistake,
Remember, daddy, remember your son?
With him was how this all begun,
You want him to forgive you, daddy? But he never will,
You'll never, ever admit the blame, your words are over-kill,
I guess I never told you, daddy, how I feel inside,
You broke my heart when I was four, emotions couldn't hide,
I know you didn't love me, daddy, I know you didn't care,
Otherwise you'd tell me, daddy, why you wern't there,
You told me you'd never make the same mistake twice,
Hand on my heart, daddy, grips like a vice,
As for you not making that same mistake,
I guess the truth will be hard to take,
You said you didn't want to loose me,
But, wait, daddy, can't you see?
The hurt that I try not too show,
Daddy... You lost me a long time ago.
