Daddy

I still miss you.A******
You were suppose to
stay around,
to watch me grow up.

You weren't there
for my fifth grade
graduation.
Or when my heart broke
not for my first day of school
like you were before

You're suppose to walk me
down the aisle,
But I bet you wont be there
either

It might be my fault though
i could've called
and not complained
I should've been more persistent.

You didn't see
my pretty ponytails and you missed my bright
yellow dress at prom
and how my hair curls

You missed another graduation
and my stupid
rebellious stage
that I know you would've hated
because I pierced my ear

I could've been Daddy's Girl
would you be proud of who
I've become

Do you still look the same?
Did you stop working out?
Is your hair gray, or do you dye it?
How the metal in your leg/
Do you keep pictures of us?
Are my toys there?

I was just a little girl
How could you of left
without a goodbye
Do you even miss me?
I bet yours hate me
I wonder if you'd recognize me?

Am I still your chiqitica
or is that Alyssa now?

You left me with all
these unanswered questions
would I of turned out
different if you were here?

Sometimes I have dreams
that I'm shipped to the Bronx
but you send me right back

One thing I know is
That I'm left with a
hole in my heart
and I miss my daddy

Gracie says I have
"Daddy issues"
I'm not sure it's true
but when people walk
out of my life
I can't help but
think of you

I was a little girl
when you drove off
and I still miss you.
A******
