A hidden secret I've kept from you

by jessie   Oct 25, 2006


Did I disappoint you?
Did I let you down?
I know at times you think I've changed,
Yet is it wrong when you change everything around me?
Took me away from the one place that could never hurt me,
Took me away to be with the one you love,
Maybe a part of me wanted an escape,
Maybe you think that I've gone too far,
It's been two months since I've kept this from you.
Burdening my soul with this heavy secret,
A secret that was a gift and the only thing that could have revived my soul,
Who would have thought three simple words could mean so much?
Is that why you're trying to protect me?
We are one united by our strength and power,
I might be leaving you soon.
But I will always be a part of you,
Blood is thicker than water,
You can bring about tears,
But I will always stick by you,
I know that you're afraid that I'll screw up the rest of my life,
But all those years when you were working and mom was gone,
I raised myself to be who I am today,
I might not be the perfect daughter,
Yet I never have stopped trying.
It's as if you make me want to prove myself,
Make me want to ensure that I don't disappoint you.
I don't want you to leave me,
Your what I have left,
My family,
My inspiration,
My dad.
