A daughter needs her daddy,
to love her, and to teach her how to be loved.
A daughter needs her daddy, to be there,
to catch her when she stumbles.
A daughter needs her daddy,
to teach her that girls deserve to be respected.
A daughter needs her daddy,
to stand beside her, strong and silent, throughout life’s struggles.
A daughter needs her daddy,
to be there at her wedding.
A daughter needs her daddy,
to be there at the birth of her children.
A daughter needs her daddy,
Not when it’s convenient for him.
Not when it will look good to those around him.
Not when she plays by his rules.
Not when he’s bored.
Not when he approves.
A daughter needs her daddy without conditions.

I want to grow
I want to grow and I’m going to grow. I’m not going to be this version of myself anymore and you won’t know who I become. You won’t talk to her, or be by her side as she goes through life— you won’t know her. Her heart won’t even remember the small moments that’ve clung to it for so long. I’ll watch her embrace a new life that has nothing to do with you, and there won’t be a space waiting like there has been for far too long.
