Daddy

Lucky Number 7

By Dawn MoranPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

My life is not what you had in mind

A boy broke my heart and I'm doing time

I packed up my stuff and left the sun

Now in Alaska I'm learning about fun

23 and finally free

But your little girl is all you see

the military I did not do

Same with the whole college thing too

Instead my family I have torn

And a friend's life I now mourn

Dreams are nightmares all the time

So much for this being my prime

I never said what happened as a child

and my fears started to pile

Now we don't talk and it hurts to this day

I need my daddy is all now I have to say.
