Unperfect Father

by erikka baby   Jul 16, 2005


Anyone can be a father
It takes a real man to be a dad
A "sorry" won't cut it anymore
You ruined all the chances you had

Every tear I cried, was because of you
Screaming at me never solved a thing
All it did was make my stomach turn
And cause me a lot more pain

I know you do love me
By the look in your eyes when I cry
But if you care, then why must you yell?
Every night I lay in bed, wondering why

I'm not the best kid ever
But I try my hardest to be
I make some mistakes sometimes
That's still no reason to scream at me

It's worse than getting hit
It goes right to your heart
You start to think that your a bad kid
And it slowly tears your world apart

I know I'm not the world's best daughter
But your definately not the world's best dad
All I ever wanted was to be a "daddy's girl"
But that's a title I never had.

    Venting are we? Any ways not bad. Rhyme is slightly forced sounding. Written for folks with parent trouble i take. Try putting it into a story next time.
