Im sorry dad

I'm writing this poem to tell you
I'm so sorry for what i make you do.
i don't mean to make you mad,
I'm sorry I'm so bad.

please stop the yelling, its getting too loud.
its hurting my ears, i feel lost in the crowd.
i keep saying I'm sorry, i really mean it.
I'm hiding in the corner, i don't want to be hit.

i will change, I'll be the daughter you hoped for.
please stop it daddy ,I'm crying on the floor.
can you not see the tears in my eyes?
cant you see I'm walking around in disguise?

i will do better, i swear on my life.
please stop it daddy, don't get the knife!
thats it daddy, turn and walk away
at least i am safe for one more day
