Tears are those annoying things that are a dead give away that your scars have grown just alil bit deeper.


Daddy who taught me to listen

to the lovely sound of country music,

Who took me fishing

to catch the biggest fish,

Who gave millions

to the people in need,

Bought us candy

with the last dollars he had,

And had the best dog

a person could ever own!



A daddy's girl, I used to be

As you can plainly see

My daddy was my heart's key

Who unlocked who i used to be!



When he finally left this earth

I think he left with some of me

I stopped doing alot of things,

I grew up in the years

With no man in my life

Which i know affected me greatly,

I listen to his favorite music

And think of him all the time,

I still mourn for him sometimes

wishing he was here

To wipe my tears

And cheer me up

I love you daddy!



A daddy's girl, i used to be

As you can plainly see

My daddy was my heart's key

Who unlocked who I used to be!

To be nobody but yourself in a world that is trying it's hardest every night and day to change you into everyone else is to fight the hardest battle a human being can fight, and never stop fighting.
