She was all grown up
daddies little girl
with her small shirt
onto his flannel button down

He hugged her every night
for he knew one day
that she would be lost
in the longest way
in the farthest state
with a man he could not debate

A fate
a series of moves and conversations
he could not control
but for every night
he was still daddies little girl

Every night
with his wife no longer present
he raised her with open arms
for every strand of hair she grew
she grew an inch taller
a bit older
a brunette that happened to be as soft
as her own mothers hair
that raced down her back
when her father first met her
at the bar by Ocean ave
with a fateful stare,
his baby girl was born under the stars sign
on the day his wife passed
he still had his baby girl
on the side of his lap.

"...he knew one day
that she would be lost
in the longest way..."
