Dear Dad

Lost Girl

When you left I was 4 years old...this writing letters and shit gettn real old...you leaving caused my heart to get cold... my momma say I look like you and act like you too... it's crazy how you can be identical to a person you barely even knew... shit it hurts that you not here for me when I'm feeling low... you not here for me physically, emotionally, or financially... my mom do it on her own... that's simply because she strong... she rewarded me for my rights and punished me for my wrongs... I remember when I was little I used to think about you all day long... it was hard growing up without you but I'm a fighter... I got dreams and I'm pursuing them... I want the green so let me keep grinding... Now my heart full of pain and you can see the hurt in my eyes... that's from all the nights that I cried... all I ever wanted was you... I wanted you to be here too... I wanted yo shoulder to lean on... I wanted to be able to hit you up with all my problems... but I guess shit just happens... all my wants became a dream and real life became a nightmare... I used to look at other kids life like that's not fair... how come they daddy there... and mines not here... that shit brought me to tears over and over again... finally I realized this was a battle that I was never gone win... but it was your lost because April 18th a Queen was born... but it's okay, there's no need to be sad and frown... because now I got my crown and my ten toes down

    Thank you so much for letting it out
    Tears that follow were for that same day
    When I wished for my real dad
    Not the drunken mess my mum was with
    Maybe then we would of all been safe

    Sadly he was never going to come
    When me teen shoes hit
    I went out on my own

    You have spirit writing so well
    Definitely his loss in this world
    Not knowing the passion you possess
    But there is plenty of us
    That appreciate what you have

    Be the light you need 😉

    Lost girl you are a "Hang Ten" as we say here in Hawaii for somebody who surfes with all then toes hanging over the front of the surfboard. If you can do that, you are good! So you really are a Queen and you are GOOD!
    Your poem is so well written, thank you for sharing!
