Weren't you the one, who said you'll be there, if ever times got tough? , <br />Because I was your 'baby girl' and for you that was enough, <br />Weren't t you the one, who said you'll be there, to fix my shattered lies? , <br />And you'd know when I was crying, 'cause you'd hear my internal cries, <br />Well, I cry every night so tell me, where are you dad? , <br />Bring back all the memories, of the life we would've had, <br />Weren't you the one who raised your hand, and hit my mother hard? , <br />When you were suppose to protect her, you were suppose to be her guard, <br />Weren't you the one who sent her out barefoot, and you left her there, <br />Well tell me how it feels daddy, to be useless, to be bare, <br />Bare of all my feelings, the feelings from your child, <br />Because while mommy was being a good girl, you were being wild, <br />Can't you see the tears, that roll down my face, <br />Doesn't it make you want to cry? , just the thought of you being erased, <br />Erased from my life, from the memories inside my head, <br />Can't you hear my cry, the cry I cry for dad, <br />Daddy is what I call you, your little girl, your star, <br />But just because you gave birth, doesn't mean that's what you are, <br />Every time you come by, it makes me want to see you more, <br />But just because your not around, I shouldn't jump for the door, <br />It's not all your fault, yes, its moms too, <br />For holding us apart, for not letting me see you, <br />But dad there is a way, to get back the life we had, <br />To stop my internal cries, to stop my cry for dad,<br /><br />niakeva thomas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-cry-for-dad/
