Her daddy

*Fiction*

What would you do, to be in her shoes,
what would you give to be her,
her beautiful dress, is hiding a bruise,
given to her
by her daddy.

What would you say, to make yourself seem,
as if you were her in the flesh,
if only you knew, how fast her nose bleeds;
'educated' each night
by her daddy.

How much do you wonder, why she doesn't speak?
her eyes are so scared, don't you know
how her face was so tear-streaked
and bled like her love,
for her daddy

This is a topic that needs to be addressed much more often that it is - as writers, we can do something about that. Thank you for bringing such an important topic to light.

There are alot of people who can relate to this piece. One of the reasons why people shy away from God the Father is because of a poor relationship with their own fathers. This is a heart wrenching write. Michelle

Good write...Sad and true for so many children...That daddy needs a strong dose of his own medicine.
