Daddy I'm Broken

A Poem by LetMeLoveYou

Being denied hurts... especially by the one person you thought would always be there for you...

I know I've let you down.
I was afraid you would hate me,
Treat me like a disease.
I knew you wouldn't accept me.

As you yelled at me
For being who I am,
I broke.
You don't trust in me,
That I could actually be
Something you don't accept.

I feel like a failure.
I'm not the daughter
You wanted or thought
That I could be.

I hid from you
That part of me
That I knew you
Couldn't accept.

So I hid it from you
I didn't know how
To tell you about me.

Now I'm broken.
I can't look at you
The same.
All of the "I'm sorrys"
Feel like a lie.

I don't trust you.
You've hurt me.
I'm broken
You broke me.

Pushed me over the edge
And now I'll never
Be able to talk
To you.

I'm shut down,
Hurt,
I feel outcast.
I'm broken daddy.

Very sad. I'm sorry, Dear. I can relate to some of these emotions. It hurts so much. But we have to think of the things to make us keep going on. Don't give up on yourself. I've done it once and I don't want to go back. I know it seems impossible, but things will get better. I assure you dear one.
Keep up with the amazing write.
