I'm Sorry Daddy

by Laura   Apr 29, 2005


Dear daddy, I want to say sorry
For I have disappointed you.
I'll never be able to reach your goals,
No matter what I do.
I thought I could count on you,
To help me stand up strong,
But your just punishing me,
For all that I do wrong.
I'm sorry I'm not like Chelsea,
With straight A's all the way.
I'm sorry I screw up,
At least once everyday.
I'm sorry I disappoint you.
I'm sorry your not proud.
I'm sorry that I'm late to class,
And sometimes are very loud.
I'm sorry for being me,
Which isn't good enough.
I'm sorry I can't pull myself through,
When things tend to get rough.
I'm sorry that I'm worthless,
And not smart enough for you.
I'm sorry you don't like my friends,
Or the things I like to do.
I wish I could be the daughter,
You strongly wish I was.
But no matter how you treat me,
I'll love you just because.
I started this poem saying sorry,
And I'll end with it too.
I'm sorry I can't be,
Good enough for you.

    Its sad either of your parents should make you feel like this hun. Don't be sorry for being who you are, as long as your trying your best you haven't let anyone down. At the end of the day you only have to answer to yourself and God. I hope things do get better for you, have you shown your Dad this poem ,or explained to him how it makes you feel? Maybe you should babes, if he doesn't know there is a problem he can't make a change. Anyways I hope it all works out for you...
