Daughter to Father

by Owner of an Untamed Heart   Oct 19, 2011


After all of these years
and that one disappointing tear
you come back to let me know
that you've always loved me so
if you loved me so much
then where were you all my life
and you say you've always cared
but your words doesn't suffice

I can go all day explaining how
you were barely around
I need a father; not a friend
ripping parts from my hope over again

on my tenth birthday, you told me
you'd be there with a gift
that day, I cried that one tear
looking down at rushing water from a cliff
a broken dream for me
to be worth five minutes of your life
don't you get how much I'm hurting
your words now is like a knife

if there was an oppurtunity
to live your life or save me
I'd bet myself you would forget
that you even had a daughter
why come back in the end
to act as if you wanna be my friend
if deep down I don't matter
