She wonders if you think of her
"Does he love me?"
She asks me in the dark
Does he think of his little girl?
Walked out when she was young
Messed up her life forever
No self respect
And none in return
No Daddy to be her hero
No one to save her
No man in her life
I ask if shes ok
Silently she nods
Lies she is used to
She spills them from time to time
I never know if I should pick them up
Or let them lay untouched
Poor Daddy`s girl
She holds on
To a man that let go long ago

This isn`t about me. I am one of the very fortunate people who still has their Dad. But this poem is dedicated to those people that dont.

Please don`t cry
I`ll wash my bloody hands
And well start a new life"

I liked it a lot.  It had a rythm without any real rhyme scheme or division of syllables (none that I noticed) which I think shows real talent as a writer. The point was good and it was well stated. Nice job.

This is bitter, I love the irony of calling her "daddy's girl" in this situation... very creative.

Great work, Allison.
