In Daddy's Eyes

Growing out of the shadow

In Daddy's Eyes,

She was a dream come true.

Such a bundle of joy,

A little girl with eyes of baby blue!

Growing as Daddy's Girl,

She was his favorite boy,

Capturing all his attention…

He was hers to control!

Later in life, a struggle to be her own,

Yet still in Daddy's Eyes,

She was not fully grown.

But she tries and tries…

Forever stuck in a world of doubt,

Underneath his thumb.

In a nightmare, with no way out.

Now she is her own,

Not blinded by his lies.

With Eyes of Emerald Green,

Her image is pure and clean..

Tarnished from long ago;

Shown from the reflection

In Daddy's Eyes.
