A little girl, now a woman. Still waiting for his call.1
Left shattered by his absence, my heart aches.2
Yearning for the words 'I Love You', 3
Just three small words to him, a heart mended to me. 4
why didn't he stay? 5
Telling your head its not you, telling your heart not to cry.6
Waiting for something that will never come,7
Knowing everything that he will never know.8
Why did he never tuck me in at night?9
Why did he never call me 'pretty'?10
Are these the feelings that will shape my life?11
Loving someone so much, not knowing who he is.12
Wanting him more than wanting to live.13
My heart is torn apart, emotions of hate overcome by love.14
Giving anything to feel whole, just to be his little girl.15
His baby, his life, his future.16

How I crave so much to be daddys little girl again. My father left me when I was 8 and just recently came back into my life and it kills me.. tears me apart knowing that I went through so much without him here. Your poem seems to relate to me almost 100% just how I wish I can go back 10 years ago and see if I couldve made him stay but well we all know he wouldnt have I was only 8 and who was I for him to listen to right? Anyways good job

This appears to be more of a poem than a story, but this is really good, so you still have a chance here. My girlfriend is going through a lot of the stuff you've mentioned here. You did a great job. Good luck in my contest.

yeah i know how you feel... well at least kinda, my dad didn't leave me... but he did forsake me during the time i needed him the most... left me to fend for myself, chucked me out into the streets when i was so broken... i needed him and he turned his back... so i know how you feel, it isn't being left or hated by the people you love... i especially love the line Giving anything to feel whole, just to be his little girl.
it speaks so much to me... great job, keep writing
