Daddy

by Katelyn Sanchez   Sep 14, 2008


You look at me
I smile so you don't see
The pain that you've left me with
To deal with on my own
So irresponsible and immature
You think you can get away with anything
You go on like its okay
And like you've talked to me
Just by seeing you makes me want to scream
Everyone tries to stick up for you
And it drives me insane
You promise me this ad you promise me that
But you never go through with it
You think I'll forget and
Say its okay
But boy are you wrong oh boy
One day you're like i have money I'll pick you up this weekend
The next you're like I'm sorry i don't have any money
Its cuz you spent it all on drugs
You say you love me
But then again you say a lot
Do you ever mean it
Or go through with it
NO

One day I'm gonna be like Fu** You
You don't care about me
All you care about is if you get your weed
All i want to do is
hurt you like you hurt me
You think i don't know that you always get loaded
But you got caught with it right in front of me
Now you talk about it like its just another little funny moment
But its not cuz its against the law
I saw you hide in right in the dash
You were telling me to keep an eye on the cop
You thought i wouldn't see you stuffing it away
The only reason they let you go was because of me
You talk bad about my mom cuz she used to do drugs
But guess what she's good now
Now look at yourself
You're probably doing drugs as i write this
You do drugs to get away from your problems
But in the long run it ain't gonna help
Its just gonna rip you right back out of my life again
And you need to go to prison for years and years on end
You need to get help
Cuz i need you to be the father that i need
Cuz every little girl needs their daddy
You obviously don't want me
You obviously don't care for me
You obviously don't want to be there for me
Well than you shouldn't of had me
Now I'm just a burden on your back
You carry me around like i weigh so much
You make me want to scream
You make me want to yell
I know that your family does drugs
You all try to hide it from me
You guys always tell me how smart i am
And i am smart, cuz i have known from the start

I love you but my love and my trust are running out the door
So you better go and catch them before they are gone
Cuz once they are gone they ain't ever coming back
I didn't talk to you for months and months
All i want to do is scream at you
You don't know anything about me
Cuz you never call me
Cuz you aren't ever around me
You say its gonna be OK
But you never say the right things
Why don't you ever pick up the phone and
dial my number
Why am i expected to call you
Its your responsibility
I'M YOUR RESPONSIBILITY

    I could relate to this in a way.

    My dad was just like yours.
    Dealed with Drugs.
    never seemed to care.
    never there.

    Now he sits behind a jail cell.
    and I miss him more than ever
    Yeah he wasnt there when I was in
    need of him most, but either way he still by dad.

    Well anyways, I like this poems very much.
    It was great.
