                                “Daddy”

I wish everything stayed like it did when we were young

Daddy was my hero

He could fix anything

Toys, cars, and even broken hearts

But daddy can’t fix depression

Daddy may be able to fix my doll

Daddy may be able to fix every little breakage in the house

But daddy can’t fix depression

Daddy can’t fix every cut or scar

Daddy can’t fix the way I feel about me

I am a broken doll in my toy box

I have a shattered face and many scars

I have no arm or maybe no leg

And daddy has tried to fix me more times than I can count

But daddy can’t fix me

He tried and failed

And now I’m in the trash bag we call society

And daddy can’t fix anything in me

I need a different kind of super glue

But no one wants to give it to me it

I need love
