Thank you Daddy

By Eagle

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Mommy doesn't cry anymore On your birthday and on New Years She tells me that she wanted you to go away And that she's happy now Thank you Daddy For going away Thank you Daddy There is nothing left to say Mommy never explained sex to me when I was young I never really understood If Daddy never existed, then neither would I So thank God I can thank my Dad Thank you Daddy Even though I never saw your face Thank you Daddy I sure do love this place Now that I'm a grown up girl And it's time for me to find A daddy for my own little girl You're an inspiration for who not to choose Thank you Daddy For being the perfect anti-role model Thank you Daddy My little girl will see Daddy beyond her cradle I know everyone's time comes eventually And mine should be pretty soon I'm sure you're dead by now But I have to say just once more Thank you Daddy Even though I never saw your face Thank you Daddy I sure did love this place Heaven is such a beautiful place Daddy I haven't seen you here I know you must have done some wicked things But I'm so glad that you made me Thank you Daddy For giving me the one thing I asked you to give Thank you Daddy For giving me that chance to liveThis is for both my friends in this situation - You know who you are! And anyone else going through this, I wish you luck in everything you do! :) Written January 19th, 2002 © on Jan 19 2002 04:08 AM PST   10 • 0 • 12
