Daddy

Sorry daddy for not being
the best daughter i could be
all i ever wanted to do
was just be me

i know you're hurting
but so is mom
i am too but it
hurted even more when you were gone

i thought we were going to be the
happiest family
but the heavens just
wouldn't let us be

now everyone is separated
and crying
wishing that we could all
just be dying

i cry secretly to not let
mom know
because she'll cry too
and you were suppose to stay to watch me grow

many wounds and cut
are inside me and they are going to stay
but when i see you
I'll just pretend I'm okay
