I wonder why my daddy doesn't hug me? Doesn't he know that my life isn't easy? Doesn't he know that this world we live in is full of me who will take advantage of my want and need for affection again and again? Doesn't he know that as a father it is his job to love on his daughter?
I wonder why my daddy doesn't tell me that I'm beautiful, but instead leaves that responsibility to other men who will use those words against me? Doesn't he know that he is basically giving away my vulnerability to every man who walks past me....and double takes, turns around and tell me that I'm pretty? Oh what pity I have for the girl who can't respond, "I know. My daddy already told me that before." Instead of saying "Tell me more. I need to hear it."
And daddy how come you don't tell me that you love me? You don't have to wait 'til I leave. Tell me now while I'm in front of you. Is that so hard to do? Tell me. What are you waiting for? No special occassion is needed. Daddy I need it. Or would you rather me go out and look for somebody to "love" me and give them my body because that's what people do when they love each other right?
Do you think buying me clothes, shoes, and jewelry will ease my insecurity that you don't think much of me? Why do you think I want something more than love? How could you never give your own child a hug? Does the fact that I look like my mother bother you? Or do you think I'm too old to have a father who wraps me in his arms and calls me his princess...?
I just wanna know daddy, why don't you hug me......please, just tell me somethin.
I wonder why my daddy doesn't hug me. Doesn't he know that my life isn't easy? Dosen't he know that this world we live in is full of men who will take advantage of my want and need for affection again and again? Doesn't he know as a father, it is his JOB to love on his daughter? Don't you know daddy? Please tell me you don't.
