Dear Daddy

Dear Daddy,
I'm sorry I got older
I'm not you're little princess anymore
But you know that, don't you?
You acted the part
You made me trust you
But you threw it all away, for what?
You burned the bridge
You widened the gap
But you don't care, do you?
You don't know your daughter anymore.
You left your mark a few too many times.
But you don't let that stop you from blaming it all on me, does it?
I trusted you.
I loved you... I still do.
But only my daddy, who are you?

A very beautiful written poem, remember, I m also a child(15 years), but remember your parents always loved you, no matter how old you become, but as the life foes on they have to make a little gap in them and you so that you can stand on your own and become independent however I m new on this site and would really appreciate if you could find time to read my poems and give your honest reviews about them
