Dear Daddy

Dear Daddy,
I was about ready to blow. So I had to go. I'm sorry it had to end like this. But I was trying not to use my fist. Now that I'm gone maybe you'll see, how much you hurt me. You always made me stay home and babysit, but I was sick of that shit. You always got drunk, treated me like a skunk. I was sick of being there for you, there was nothing I could do. So this is what I needed, for you I always pleaded. You never listened and never cared, so I took the knife and slowly dared. I'm gone Daddy please don't cry. It wasn't all your fault that I wanted to die. Please Daddy tell you-know-who I love him, but my life had slowly gone dim. Tell my family they did nothing wrong. The days were just getting too long. Tell everyone that I'm sorry. They no longer need to worry.
Love,
Your one and only daughter.
