Where have you been?
Where were you?
When I turned my back on mankind
When I thought my world was coming to end and loosing hope
When all I  saw in a man was darkness
When I had my first heartbreak and swore never to love again

........ you where right there but your presence absent

How do I believe all these words men tell me when the man who seeded me has never told me
How beautiful and special I am
How one day I would find one who will love me unconditionally
How do I measure that unconditional love when I have never experienced it

I do not need a hero

All I need is to feel the warm, strength and comfort of your arms around me
The look of security......

All I need is my father...
