Hey dad, look at me, am I the person that you wanted me to be? Are you proud of me? Have you ever thought I would make it this far, Daddy? Daddy do you love me? Yeah, I know you buy me what I want but you never really say it, cause sometimes, saying it is actually better than anything else, so, do you, Daddy? Do you? Cause it's hard sometimes to figure you out. I don't know if you really got to know me or if you ever thought about me when I wasn't around. Was I ever important to you, Dad? I haven't seen you in a long time and I just want to know if you missed me at all because it hurts so bad when I hear nothing from you... and I wonder sometimes if I'll grow old knowing you really cared about me or if you'll die knowing I loved you so much and I'm happy to be your daughter even if you never really noticed me. You want to know something, Dad? I stopped hating you a long time ago. I stopped being so mad because you said you had a good reason why you left. Was it me, Daddy? Was I not good enough? Wasn't my love good enough to make you stay? I begged for you not to leave but you left anyway, and now I wonder if you sometimes regret ever leaving. Daddy, did you ever wish you could come back? Cause I wish for it everyday. If you think of coming back, dad, let me know so I can prepare the room again and flex my fingers for the head scratch you always asked of me. I'm not mad, Dad, I love you too much to get mad at you for very long. Coming home, Dad, has never been easier. To be able to fill our lives together again has never felt so great. Will you come home, Dad? Come home so I can be complete again. |
