Dear Daddy

You wounded me bad you cut me deep.
The sight of your face haunts me in my sleep.
Where did i go wrong what did i do?
Everything i did was never good enough for you.

You set me aside like a toy on the shelf.
Around you i could never feel worthy of myself.
You never had anything nice to say.
You might just smile at me and go on about your day.

You scream and bellow i cant take it anymore.
My conscience tells me to just saunter out the door.
You drink and you rub you lie and you curse.
Between you and the monarch of hell i dont know which one is worse.

One of these days you'll see what i see.
By the time you do it will be too late for you and me.
You'll never know the pain i go through.
But i dont have to put up with it anymore all because of you.
