 Poem:

DEAR DADDY

 

Dear Daddy,

This is supposed to be simple daddy
It's supposed to be easy
I'm supposed to be able to write this
Without my stomach becoming queasy

I'm supposed to no longer care
I'm supposed not think about you
Why you're no longer here
And why I can't see you, too

I'm not supposed to remember
All those times you fought with mom
Or the time you hit me daddy
When my life seemed to exploded like a bomb

I’m supposed to move on
I'm not supposed to regret the past
Supposed to be happy
And not remember the rest

I'm supposed to grow up daddy
Without any memory of this
Without spending time worrying
And wondering about everything I’ll miss

I'm supposed be able to move on
And live my life like you were never there
Like you never hurt me
Not one little piece of my hair

But then again daddy
You were supposed to do
A lot of things you weren't
Supposed to too

You were supposed to stay daddy
Supposed to wish me a happy birthday
Without calling from
Some place too far away

You weren't ever supposed to hit me
Or cause me any pain
You were supposed to love me daddy
Not make me live in vein

What ever happened daddy?
Why did you leave?
Why did you hurt me
More then I need?

I don't get it anymore
And I know I should probably stop trying
But I know I can't
When a part of me is dying

I need to see you again daddy
And get everything straight
Like why you hit me
And to tell you it’s just too late

And I know that even though I'm not supposed to care
Or even worry why you're not here
But I can't help it daddy
For my little heart is starting to tear

I needed you daddy
But you left me to fend all alone
And I thought that I still needed you
But now that feeling has blown

I don’t need you anymore daddy
I don’t need you lies
And your silly little games
I don’t need anymore tears to shed from my eyes

You may need me now
But it’s just too late
You left me and made me cry
And now it’s your turn with the same fate

But don’t worry daddy
Because deep down inside
I still need you daddy
And that feeling just can’t hide

But I hope you can understand
Why I can’t wait anymore
It’s not that I don’t love you
Because trust me, that feeling will always soar

But I have to move on daddy
I have to get a better life
One without you in it
To hurt me like some knife

And I’ll miss you daddy
Even thought I’m much better off this way
Even though you hurt me
In my heart you will always stay

I love you daddy
And with this I hope that you’ll see
When you left you didn’t hurt mommy
The only person you hurt was me
