Daughter

by SADADDY   Oct 3, 2006


For the love of a daughter
That I cherish as a father
The daughter I prayed to God for
Those many years ago
My heart is sad and lonely
In this place that I call home
We have experienced some good times
We have gone through some bad times too

For the love of a daughter
The girl I always wanted
The daughter that I love so
The one who filled my life with joy
The one that filled my heart with pride
The one who has no way of knowing
The tears that I have shed
I can only wonder what I have done
That has turned her heart so cold

For the love of a daughter
There will be forgiveness
As precious as she is
To this Father's heart
I can only love her
As much as she will allow me

    So sad! it makes me appreciate my dad more, there can be nothing stronger than love between a child and parent. i hope you've worked things out.
