Daddy's Eyes

by Jenni Marie   Oct 22, 2007


Confusion swirling inside
Not knowing what to do
No words are being spoken
Yet suddenly feeling so blue

Unsure of what to even say
Silence uncomfortably setting in
Just wanting to finally be rid of
This pain and despair within

Waiting for lips to finally speak
Resigned to your next twisted lie
Knowing you can't help yourself
You always make me cry

What happened to our relationship?
And all of the love that we felt?
When did you decide not to care
About all the pain you dealt?

No point in even questioning you
All I can do is shake my head and sigh
Wondering how I can feel this pain
Just by looking into Daddy's eyes.

    I don't know how old you are. But this poem has the emotion that an adult could never understand. I'm a 16 year old girl. Reading what you wrote put all of my emotions and feelings tword my father into words. I've been through hell with my father, I write poems to express my feelings but I could never come up with anything to explain the pain he's put me through. Honestly, I cried. This is absolutly amazing. And I hope you don't mind, but I printed this out and gave it to my father. I didn't take credit for it at all, but I told him that someone had finally written something that could slightly explain what he's done. He read it and had nothing to say. I know that he wasn't reading "my" words, but I was finally able to make him feel an ounce of the hurt that I've felt my life. I hope you don't think this is wierd or creepy in ANY way, this poem toched my heart very deeply. Thank You.
