Sorry Daddy

You call me names
You curse me out
When I make you mad
You scream and shout

I know you love me
and I know you care
there’s times when you show it
but those times are rare

I hardly get to see you
but the times that I do
You’re either drunk or high
but Daddy.. I still love you

You hit me a lot
but it's because I do you wrong
I must do you wrong plenty
since these bruises stay for so long

I keep my feelings
locked up inside
the bruises and scars
I try to hide

When the doctor asked
who gave these bruises to me
I didn’t tell them it was you Daddy
I told them it was me

I don’t know if they believed me
but they put this needle in my arm
Daddy I pray that when I'm gone
they will do you no harm

Daddy I'm getting scared
I look around
and you’re no where to be found
as I take my very last breath
I go peacefully, without you, to my death

This was heart wrenching and beautiful. I hope things get better for you, I am praying for you. If you need a stranger to talk to I am here. (yea, I know that is not very helpful but at least its another option out there)
