Dear Daddy


dear daddy.
were you there when i took my first steps?
or were you and mommy already apart?
when you hit her with me in her arms
didnt you think that it might have hurt me too?
dear daddy.
did you know that i lost my first tooth when i was 7?
did you know it was my left top front tooth?
did you know that i got four whole dollars
from the tooth fairy that night?
dear daddy.
dana didnt like me.
mommy didnt know what to do.
she loved him
and she didnt want a repeat
of her first marriage
so she tried to make him happy
but she forgot about me
in the process.
dear daddy.
why did you use that to your advantage?
it must have been nice to only care about me
three times a year.
i used to be normal.
dear dad.
did you know
i tried to kill myself?
did you know i did it
so that i could
live with you.
i fought.
dear dad.
did you know
that i lost my virginity to jay?
december 8th 2000.
on the floor of his friends house?
after saying he loved me
just to get me to fuck him.
did you know i cried?
because i thought it was real.
did you know that
he broke up with me
a month later
for another girl?
you said you were sorry
as i cried.
you liked him.
too bad.
dear dad.
remember the mail key?
oops.
was that punch worth it?
why did you smile
when you did it?
i dont think i had ever seen collette
so happy.
dear dad.
do you remember zac... eric?
yes, he was a horrible man.
he treated your daughter better than
her parents ever did.
he protected your eldest son
from james, the pedophile.
he even once threatened to hurt james
if i ever asked him to.
why?
because i mentioned
that i was worried about him
being around andy.
dear dad.
i never made love to zac.
ever.
he wanted to.
i said no.
he respected me.
dear dad.
zac gave me
my first real kiss.
i tried not to fall for him.
and him me.
but... it just happened...
dear dad.
did you know i still
cry?
dear dad.
do you know why
i kept chasing guys?
i never felt any love.
i always felt used.
and like a burden.
like a fucking orphan.
dear father.
i am not sorry.
i had to get away.
you never cared.
you never saw me crying.
my friends
saw the bruises.
they saw the make up trying
to hide it.
scott saw you through
the window.
he saw you hit me.
he ran up and knocked.
he wanted to hit you
with his skateboard.
but i shook my head
behind you.
they
wanted to call the police again.
but i didnt want the others to be
taken away from each other.
that is probably all
they would ever have.
dear father.
i ran.
you threatened.
you cried.
you felt everything i had felt
for years.
you swore you would
get my mom back.
dear father.
you wouldnt even send my meds.
not even the one i needed to live.
or my clothes.
dear father.
i tried again.
i failed.
the successful failure.
i live now.
dear father.
keith still has to hold me
sometimes.
when i cant stop crying.
when i wonder why you havent
called me in over
four years.
when i wonder why
you did not see me
graduate high school.
dear father.
you never talk to me.
i am crying.
all i wanted
was a daddy.
not a jim.
dear jim.
where is my daddy?
