Smile on my face,
Joy in my voice,
Radiating this feeling of love,
Don't you see I'm a better actor,
Then the ones in the movies.

Deep inside,
Hidden by all your eyes,
Lies my undeniable,
Feeling of wanting to die.

I was young and so lovable,
I didn't know my father,
Could be so diabolical.

It happened once,
You know it will happen again,
I was so small and fragile,
I didn't wanna let him in.

I loved him,
He was my dad,
So why was he doing this to me?

Tear soaked pillows,
Puffy eyes,
I didn't know what to do,
So I hid behind tremendous lies.

I felt ashamed,
And *****,
I needed to hide.
I felt like I had a sign on my forehead,
That said,
I'm weak please don't show any pity.

You always looked at me,
With your  judgmental eyes,
You never took the time to wonder why?

You pushed,
You shoved,
You tore me down,
You didn't even stop and think,
Is this damaging?

I'm fine thanks for asking,
He's gone,I'm done with all my hurting.
