I never ask you to call me your little princess;
I never ask you to hug me when I cried,
or kiss me good night;
I never ask you to be there for me.

well, they said, a father is a daughter's first love.
well, then I said that's *******.

Never in a million years,
I expect that my first heartbreak is from my own father.
long before any boy had the chance to.

I still remember when I was 7,
I already cursed him under my breath,
I even wrote about it in one of my very first diaries.

Sad to be true, but now I am almost 26.
19 years I live with all these wounds that never really healed.

I never asked him to love me.

Just stop hurting me.
Just stop hurting my feelings.
