Daughter Poems

Jessica

DownUp -1

You have every right to feel the way you do
As a father, I was never there for you
It was not easy to leave you and Brad behind
But I always hoped you would understand in time
It broke my heart not be by your side
You did not see the many nights I cried
I should have given you more attention
Gave you more time, love and affection
Tried a little harder to show how much I care
But the pain inside was at times, too much to bear
So instead I retreated, selfish I know
Retreated from your life, and just watched you grow
I am truly sorry, for my stupid selfishness
I should have been there for my special princess

I cannot roll back the years and change the past
But perhaps we can build something that will last
Something for us, your sisters and brother
Something important, something together

I love you

Dad.

I Am Yours To Keep

DownUp 0

You are a princess in my heart,
and I care for you so much.
I love the fondness in you eyes and your tender little touch.

I looked at you when you were born,
and knew then straight away,
that I would be forever here
to watch you grow and play.

You bring to me a heart of joy,
and memories so great,
and a powerful sense of fatherhood that no one can debate.

I watch you sleep and dream of things that I can only wonder.
That innocent look upon your face just makes my heart grow fonder.

I see you run and jump and shout and calling out my name.
No love that I have ever known could ever feel the same.
No suffering or tragedy nor deeply seated pain
could ever over shadow the bond that we retain.

And so my little princess before you go to sleep,
Remember I am your daddy and I am yours to keep.

Last Chance

DownUp +2

You walked out on us
And never said goodbye
In fifteen years you haven’t called
Not even to say Hi

It tears me up inside
To feel like I’m alone
You’ve never been a part of my life
And now I’m almost grown

Why couldn’t you just call
Or maybe send a card
If you couldn’t afford either of those
A letter’s not that hard

So many things have happened
That you haven’t been there to see
You’ve missed out on so much
You’ve missed out on me

So I’m giving you a second chance
To step up and be a dad
But this one is your last one
So take it and be glad

My Angel

DownUp 0

My teenage years have been rough,
There are times when I just want to give up,
My nerves get so shot,
And I feel like I’m going to erupt,
But then you walk in the door,
While I’m listening to a sad song,
And of course you turn it off,
And ask me what’s wrong,
I explain it you,
And you say it’ll be ok,
You give comforting advice,
You make the day a better day,
I want you to know how glad I am,
That you are my dad’s wife,
I don’t know what I did to be so blessed,
To have an angel like you in my life,
Here lately things have been hectic,
And I’m sorry that we fight,
Were not going to anymore,
Cause tonight’s a brand new night,
Thank you for putting up with me,
For being so calm,
I want you to know I don’t consider you my step mother,
You’re my mom,
There are not enough words to express,
How much you I thank you for everything you do,
Hopefully this will be enough,
I love you,
I’m going to end this now,
Because I’m going to write you a letter,
But I’ll talk to you soon,
And I hope you get to feeling better!

Who Is She

DownUp -1

She’s a soft cool rain on a hot summer’s day.
She makes me laugh with the funny things she has to say.

She’s the beat of my heart, and the air that I breathe.
She’s the sun and the wind, and autumn’s golden leaves.

She’s the pride that I feel when I know she’s done what’s right.
She’s that warm feeling I get, when I remember tucking her in at night.

She is homework and sports, and a busy social life.
She has this beautiful smile that could light the darkest night.

She is the scared feeling I have when she stays out late.
Or the feeling that I am losing her, when she wants to date.

She’s the mixed emotions I have, as I watch her mature and grow.
I tell myself she will never leave, but, I know in my heart that someday she will go.

I hope the man that steals her heart, will treat her like a queen.
Because she deserves so much more, than a man that treats her mean.

I will always cherish the wonderful times we have had.
The best part of my life was being her dad.

So now you know who she is, she’s my little girl.
I love her with all my heart and I always will.

An Angel Left Her Wings

DownUp +2

I have this little angel. For me she left her wings.
She has no idea how much happiness she truly brings.
She brightens up my days with her smiles and her laughs.
She helps me to remember all the blessings that I have.

Her face, it is so perfect, she’s sweet and soft and pure.
Sometimes she can be willful and sometimes she is demure.
She tries her very hardest to please and do what’s right.
She gives the greatest hugs from morning until night.

Every person that has known her sees this light within her soul
I know that in this whole great world, she has a special role.
She’s helpful and considerate to everyone she knows
This light in her shines brighter as my angel grows.

When she sees someone is sad, it opens up her heart.
She wants to do all that she can; she wants to do her part.
She’ll squeeze away the sorrow and make me forget about my pain.
She shows me where the sun is when we’re hiding from the rain.

I know that God must love me, He showed me with His Grace
I knew just how completely when I saw my angel’s face.
And in that very moment when she came into my world,
I knew that she was so much more than just my baby girl.

She would be my sunshine, with a sweetness that won’t end.
And when she grows up one day she would be my closest friend.
She would be the reason I would always try my best.
For my little angel baby girl would be my greatest test.

When God entrusts to you an angel, who has left her wings for you.
Encircle her with love with everything you do.
Let her know God made her, and that He trusts you with her care.
Be sure to make time for special moments with her to share.

And when at night she finally says her prayers and goes to sleep
I Thank Him for my angel, and ask for him to always keep
A watchful eye and hand to protect her from this world.
Protect my little angel; protect my baby girl.

Worthless

DownUp 0

I’m in over my head
Better off dead
You tell me I’m worthless
Your worthless daughter

I’m falling further away
It gets worse each day
The yelling; the fighting
Your worthless daughter

I cause you to cry
Your husband to yell
So much hate in this house
Your worthless daughter

You know my greatest fear
Of being sent away
To leave what I call home
Your worthless daughter

If I’m so worthless to you
Then why do you keep me
Why do I stay?
Your worthless daughter

I feel so hurt
To know I mean nothing
That you don’t care
Your worthless daughter

So I was born lung issues
That apparently doesn’t stop you
I really am worthless…
Your worthless daughter

Spoiled brat; stupid child
You’re helpless; you’re worthless
Just a bit** with an attitude
Your worthless daughter

I’ve thought so many times
How much I’ve hurt you
Causing so much pain
Your worthless daughter

But you don’t know
How much it hurts to hear
What you say to me; what you call me
Your worthless daughter

Why you can’t accept me for who I am?
I don’t know
All I know is that I’m nothing
Your worthless daughter

You feed me pills
To change me and who I am
Make me who YOU want me to be
Your worthless daughter

It’s good to know I’m worthless
Cause that’s all you say
You’re never happy about me
Your worthless daughter

Bad grades
I’m never a help to you
When was the last time you said something nice?
Your worthless daughter

Maybe I should say goodbye to this hell
Make you and your husband happy
But not to another home; someplace else
Your worthless daughter

A place you will never know
Someplace where I can find myself
Who I am inside
Your worthless daughter

But I choose to stay
To see if I will ever be more
Than just a burden
Your worthless daughter

I love you mom
And I know you love me too
But I’m hurting side to know that all I am is
Your worthless daughter

Please don’t give up on me
I’m trying as hard as I can
To be someone; to not be
Your worthless daughter

I’m sorry for causing
I’m sorry for hurting
I’m sorry for being…
Your worthless daughter
