Daddys girl
he said it was a secret
he said it was a game
he i said i mustn't ever tell,
that I would get the blame
he told me i was special
he said i should be glad
he said i should be grateful
that i had him for a dad
he said if i did tell them
that they would come for me
that they would put me in a home
and they would not believe
he said that it was my fault
that i would go to him
he said he didnt see the harm
in what was happening
he told me that he loved me
from very deep inside
daddys little girl he said
daddy, how you lied.

A sad and chilling poem brilliantly written,displaying disappointment and trauma in so few lines.
