What did I do wrong here, daddy? <br />What did I say to make it end? <br />Why can't you just love me, daddy? <br />Why are you stuck in a life that's pretend? <br /> <br />Why can't you just hold me, daddy? <br />Why instead do you push me away? <br />Why am I the outcast, daddy? <br />Why couldn't you just let me stay? <br /> <br />I wanted to be there with you, daddy <br />I wanted to be apart of your life <br />Why wasn't I good enough, daddy? <br />Am I not as good as your new kids and wife? <br /> <br />I used to be your everything, daddy <br />You used to love me, remember that dad? <br />How can you just forget me, daddy? <br />Was it that far back into the past? <br /> <br />Can't you remember how it was before? <br />Daddy, remember when our lives meant more? <br />Now you want to forget I exist <br />But, daddy, I'll always be your kid<br /><br />Crystal Johnson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/why-daddy/
