You

One thousand and ninety-five days, I lived for you.

Thousands and thousands of tears I cried for you.

At least a million smiles…I smiled because of you.

Emotions I didn't know I was capable of, shined through because of you.

My heart, my soul, my life…I gave to you.

I was indescribably in love with you.

I had to love enough for both myself and you.

Your heart wasn't open…deprived me of equal feelings from you.

Now I am finally over you.

And now I honestly feel what it's like to be loved by you.

Daddy

A little girl stands, dressed in blue.

Searching for something true.

Still reaching out to you.



Digging through youthful memories

Attempting to find one that puts her heart at ease.

Disappointment is such a disastrous disease.



She finds herself with eyes of rain.

Not one memory of you, that doesn't cause pain.

Only your devious tongue remains.



A young lady now, that has matured tremendously.

For you, she feels only hostility.


Yet, this little girl lives inside of me, still longing for a daddy.
