From a Daughter to her (Step) Father Do I mean nothing to you? Why do you keep hurting me? Did I fail to be all That you wanted me to be? Do you treat me differently Because I am not “yours?” Is it because I’m not a boy? Would you love me if I were? What have I done to you To make your heart so cold Did you love me once? Or are those just words you told? Am I just part of the package? Another thing you married? Was your love for me a hoax? Am I a burden you have carried? What place do I hold in your heart? Do I hold a place at all? When did everything fall apart? When did you build this wall? Maybe it was always this way, But it seemed to happen so fast. Did I just now open my eyes To the way things were in the past? Has it always been this way? Was I always second-class? Or did you love me once? And is that love left in the past? "What makes letting go hard isn't losing what you had, but losing the dream of what could have been." |

angel girl, gee I wish that I could be your step dad. But as long as I'm wishing, I'd wish for the gold. Phooey on this step stuff. If you ever want a new one just let me know. I'm here. I have two daughters and I'd love another. Yes, they are both very spoiled. And I believe that God only makes real beautiful wonderful daughters. Angels! Period!

Thanks everyone for your comments. This is a really confusing time for me. My (step) dad and mom are divorcing after 10 years, and now my (step) dad isn't treating me like his daughter anymore. It just seems like all these years were a waste. "What makes letting go hard isn't losing what you had, but losing the dream of what could have been." |
