Daddy

It's nice to know you listen Daddy
It's nice to know you care
It's nice to know when I need you,
I know you won't be there

I've tried and tried and tried again
but you won't approve;
you won't give in

Why am I always wrong Daddy
&& why are you always right?
Why do we always have to fight

Why am I so funny Daddy?
Why do you have to laugh
why don't you trust me Daddy?
Have I done something bad?

What happened to us Daddy?
We used to be so close
The answer no one knows

I'm unique Daddy
I'm not like anyone else
why can't you just accept me
And let my creativity be free?

I'm not as dumb as you think
In fact I'm not at all
I'm actually quite smart Daddy
not like you would know

Why do you ignore me Daddy?
Is it because I'm not perfect
I'm not perfect like her?
I just don't think this is worth it.

I wrote this poem for you Daddy
Are you proud of me now?
If not, I don't know how
Or what to do anymore...
