"daddy issues"

by errin-m

'"Why girls who have close relationships with their father, make better wives" "Why girls with 'daddy issues' are too complicated" Enough I say, just because my father didn't decide to be in my life,         Doesn't mean I am less of a person or would make a bad wife My absent father does not affect the way I love If anything it's taught me, to hold my head high and stand up If you label me with 'daddy issues' I could only feel pride, For every shattered disappointment I felt and for every tear I cried For the days spent wishing and the night spent alone, I realized I did not need a man, to build my backbone Funny how absence can work in my favor I am now stronger than ever, my own gleaming savior So for boys who can't handle these women so strong Stop trying to label us problematic and make us seem 'wrong'
