Dear Daddy,

Can you please tell me

Where I messed up?

When I became the little girl

You're always disappointed in?

Dear Daddy,

Can you please tell me

When you stopped caring?

When everything I do

Became unimportant?

Dear Daddy,

Can you please tell me

When I became so easy to leave?

When every mistake

Made you hate me?

Dear Daddy,

Can you please tell me

When I became a possession

When I was to obey

And not stand for myself(when that's exactly

what you told me to do)

Dear Daddy,

Can you please tell me

Why I remind you of your past?

Why you feel this anger

When I'm just like you?

Dear Daddy,

Do you even realize

How far my esteem has fallen around you

How I feel unimportant and useless

How I expect everybody to leave?

Dear Daddy,

Do you even realize

How much I need you

But when you yell at me

How much you dont need me?

Dear Daddy,

Do you even realize

When you leave a scar?

When you throw me down?

Without physically touching me?

Dear Daddy,

Do you even realize

That Mama has to stand up for me?

Because I'm held too far down

By your words alone

Dear Daddy,

Do you even realize

How deep you've dug the hole?

How lightweight I am now?

How quiet I am now?

How the tears stream down your face?

Cause Daddy,

You're slowly putting me

Six feet down.
