Fatherly Love

I look back and see... Remember times spent crying on my knee Your anger is my biggest fear, Your words can bring me a tear. As year started rushing by, For you I'm no good though I try You treated me just as bad, And those times were so sad:-( I grow up longing and seeking For a fatherly love I'm lacking. I search, hope to find someone Who can love me just the way I am... It's perhaps my biggest mistake I just suffer pain and heartache! My childishness caused me to stumble and fall... But I've learned to carry on and stand tall! And now I have my own family, Living a simple life yet we're happy. He's indeed a loving man, am so lucky But still there's an emptiness inside of me...:-( I wish I could bring back the days To be a little girl to show you love in so many ways Even if you didn't love me enough... I promise to be here to make you laugh. I regret for the times that flew, I hope it's not too late to show... I would never ask for anyone new. Papa I love you and I do care for you...
