I'm tired
Dad I'm so so tired
I know you are having problems
You talk about the cold metal of the trigger a lot
But please know I can't lose you
I look in the mirror and hate who I've become
Mom ruined us dad
I know you've been hurting too
Ever since she picked up the bottle
You've lost yourself in a different type of bottle
The type that burns your body
From the inside out when you swallow
But dad you don't have to do this
You don't have to lose yourself
Because she lost herself
You're so strong
I wish I could be as strong as you
And hope one day you'll understand
Why I'm writing this out
Why I say the things I do
Why I cry in my room
Why I have th marks on my arm
Why I lock myself in my room
Why I have horrid mood swings
Why I'm not your little princess anymore
Because dad
When you picked up what bottle
I picked up the razor
So I know what you're going through
I know it's painful to stop
And hurts to continue
But no matter what
I'm always here
And will always love you.
From your distant daughter
