Dear Father

A Poem

By Pooka MitchellPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I wish I were as happy as I seem. I wish I were the perfect daughter you wanted me to be. I wish I truly believed in ... myself. I wish upon a star. Growing up with all I knew was my father as my protector, provider, my friend. But times have gotten tough and your little girl is growing up. I have to build my own strength. Try to stand on the two feet you helped to walk. Time to move on to grow. Im running without making a move I'm stuck in this one place to protect you from yourself.! Over the years the roles have switched and I'm the mother to you but as I spread my wings to fly I wish you no disappointment!

To: Daddy
