A Daughter's Desire


 



The bitterness inside me oozes out like pus from an infected sore.
What have I done to deserve so little from you?
I watch others as they go shopping, joking, playing, loving. 
Father/daughter dances, fatherly advice, the connection and bonding. 
Is it really too much to ask to have that?

You have been this phantom in my life.
Am I delusional to allow this specter to infiltrate my heart and my mind one who so callously throws away something as precious as a daughter.
I try to push you out of my heart and my mind, but to no avail. 
Resentment of what should be recurs like a herpes outbreak.

In a perfect world you would be there.
I would have the love and support from two instead of one.
Forgive your thoughtlessness, selfishness, and immaturity: I think not. 
You should love me, take care of me, cherish me, show me, and be an example for me. 
Instead of being the role model for what I should look for in my future mate, 
you have shown me what to avoid.
I guess I can thank you for that .
