I'll Never Be Daddy's Little Girl

Daddy's little girl I will never be
I will never know how it was meant to be
The dreams I had were not extreme
But daddy was the theme
It was not in his heart for me to be his little girl
I would smile and dress real nice and even do a twirl
No matter how I shined each day
His heart was cold and gray
Little girls need to know they're wanted
So their hearts are never haunted
There was a point I came to so dire
I would have walked though fire
I looked a long time high and low
but my dreams became wry and woe
I needed to move on, that meant I had to let go
He will never love me this I already know
I fell to my knees my heart I poured out to God
I told him all my secrets and I never did feel odd
An angel here and angel near
I notice then a real small tear
I don't remember just when it was the last time I had cried
But it had been so long for no one was by my side
I then remembered how, His eye is on the sparrow
My eyes were starting to open my path had been too narrow
It was that dream I held so dear
But the time had come I could see it clear
I told someone who really cared he too had looked for love
When the tears began to flow I looked to God above
There's a spot in my heart I thought my dad alone would fill
But now I'm is walking with someone who's love he will instill.
He's kind and tender hearted and loves to makes me smile
He wishes for me all the best while walking along this mile
I gave my heart over, to be held in tender hands
it was the best decision to trust in this dear man.

I give this poem to the man who is like a father to me. Thank you for loving me, I love you too.
