Daddy's Girl
She was a Daddy's girl
The apple of his eye
Somehow things change
as the years go by
His hugs and kisses
Vanished like the sun
He became serious
Instead of being fun
She wanted to be noticed
Purple hair and pierced nose
She started wearing black
From her head to her toes
He said he was leaving
A new family he had
He said not to worry
He'd always be her dad
She didn't shed a tear
As daddy walked away
Still pain needs expression
She cuts her skin each day
If you see her tatoo
It's a black broken heart
Printed with Daddy's Girl
Her life expressed through art
I wrote this one for Donna Jones
to answer some of the questions
she had about my Watch poem.
