Daddy's Little Girl

by Jayleen   Aug 11, 2007


Standing there as I watch
Those precious little princesses
So preppy and perfect
Yet, I never will be.

A failure in his eyes
Perfect? Nope not me.
I don't like pink
Nor am I a model.

I'm sorry that I failed you
Please don't shun me from your life
I have faced life alone
For you have never been there for me.

When I turned 16, my Sweet 16
You lied to me, and never showed
You scarred me for life
You called me ugly, and burned me inside.

I hate you, but I love you
Why hurt me so much?
You beat me for nothing
I'm sorry I'm not a boy.

I don't enjoy cars or bikes
I'm just Little shy
I don't get straight A's
Nor all the guys.

Was I born a mistake?
Or just turn out wrong?
Why do you hate me so
That you hit all the time.

Is there no safe haven
To keep me from you fists?
To remove that choke hold
From around my neck?

How shall I escape this
Circle of your torturous lies?
You stand over me with a torch
And burn my body with your words
Till I scream that I agree
"I am a failure, okay?
You win! Now leave me be!"

I'm scarred forever
I'll never forgive you
You hurt me too bad.
I'll never be perfect to you.
Sorry, but I'm not your "Daddy's Little Girl."

    I can definitely relate to this, it looks a lot like my situation. But most of the time the dads are mistaken and it's them who are no good. Keep it up and stay strong
