The Girl Daddy Made

By Silence

Let me tell you a story
About a man
Who smacked a girl around

Blood always slipped and dripped from her nostrils
Used to have bruises on her cheeks and other places
She also used to get raped

Never said much to her that he didnt express with his body
She used to run to school to be all alone
At least lonliness took the pain away for a little while

Everyone looks away ignoring her
Making her turn the other blood shot cheek
To her own father

Leading us to the woman she became
Laying her body back
To feel loved the way her father used to

Telling herself this is what she wants
The only way to feel love
Not knowing why she cries herself to sleep
When she has someone who loves her so much

She continues with her life this way
Never breaking away from she was taught
Not allowed to think passed what life taught her
No one loves you unless you give them your body

Selling your soul away day by day
Till nothing is left but a hollow husk
A swallow of some pills to numb
Sniffing their way into a slow trickle from the nose

And opens their own body at the wrist
Restful solution to a life of pain and suffering
All because of what her father taught her at the start of life

    sadly life and people tend to be so sickening. another cloud to block the day. another wind to blow away, hopes, dreams, desires. but some mange to make it through. the more their held down the more they press on. Live. don't ever let anyone stop you.

    The lessons that we are taught growing up never leave us regardless of how wrong we know they are...This brought back some ghosts...
