Do you remember the times we used to have? you know, before you said it and left me sad... I was your princess, your shining star of gold But after a while that changed and your heart was cold I could never explain what you did to me Or how your words broke what used to be me And now four years later, after the pain Standing at your door in the pooring rain Shaking nervously and waiting for you Thinking I should run, what the hell do I do? The door flies open and you look for a few And you say "WHO?...oh my god, it's you!!" Yes, it's me, have I changed, or am I the same? Through your eyes I see the shame Anger seeps benath my very skin I almost died for YOUR sin But I'm here, I'm here to prove to you I didn't need your lies I didn't need you Nervousness chases my heart through my veins Outside, it still pours down rain Your pathetic attempts and small talk amuse me As if you expect me to just let you free Free of the guilt I put on your heart. Sitting here with you, makes me nauseous I can't hold I have to forgive you though, for my heart is sold You've put me through so much Daddy, and I don't know what to do You say that you're sorry, but is that really true? I want to hit you, I want to run away But if I do, I'll be the same way I can't do this to myself any more, so lets just get it over with Can you put your life on hold for me now? Can you figure out how? Tell me you've missed me and you were wrong And that I should stop singing the same sad song Tell me that everythings going to be ok And that you'll see me another day Lie to me again, Dad to make it all alright And then I'll walk, I'll walk from your sight I'll break down again because it's all wrong And I know you'll never really care about me, what is it that I did wrong?!?! I'll always be your daughter, the one you never claimed And for that, I have to suffer and of me you'll be ashamed... *Ok, It's been so long, and my fingers are a little rusty...For those of you who are still here..Hey I've missed you, It's been FOREVER. To those of you who I don't know yet, It'll be fun to get to know you...Just a little I'm back message!!  "Tell me why you cry" |

This was a very strong poem. It reminds me of a friend of mine, who went through the same thing with her Father, luckily, everything worked out between them. This is a great poem! "You can't hurt meee!! 'Cause I've got on my cheeeeese helmet!" |

Wow...just wow...This was freakin awesome! I wish that I could write something to my dad or about my dad...But he's impossible and it's impossible. I think the closest that I'd ever get to what you have written is A**hole! Great job, caught my attention right from the start! I Loved it! ~*~Me~*~ ~Loving you isn't the problem, getting too close is.~ |
