My Dream I Prayed Hoped and Wished For

From the minute i was born,
I prayed, hoped and wished to be daddy's little girl,
As i grew up i started to realise,
That everything i prayed, hoped and wished for weren't going to come true,

I had faith in that person,
I called Dad to change and start realising,
What his little girl wished for,

But it never happened,
Not event o this day,
I'm 14 yrs old,

I have given up on praying, hoping and wishing,
And i know in my heart,
I can't give that man a second chance,
I wanted to be Daddy's little girl for so long,
But it's too late now................

I know deep down this will never happen.

I can see why your Grandpa was such an important person in your life, when your Dad failed you as a Father. Praying you will find acceptance by the Heavenly Father who loves us completely.
