Dad

Sometimes your first heartbreak is your father.

I didn't mean to disappoint you, Daddy

I didn't mean it.

that day you left I couldn't believe it

took my childhood with you

now I look for every man in you.

I'm beside myself, not myself

Completely doubt myself

Indulging in the things that give me temporary satisfaction for that

Mental attraction

Just to find myself mentally drained

Yet I still sustained

Entirely drowning myself in my own thoughts and pain

I need more

I look for every man in you and just like you they disappear, perhaps one day I'll turn it around

Switch my life and be profound

I only need love
