You said you would always be there for me.
You said  you loved me and would never let anybody hurt me.
You were suppose to protect me.
You're the one I got the bruises from.
The tears came from you.
To act like everything  okay,
You would buy me some expensive thing I didn't need.
I NEEDED LOVE NOT NEGLECT .
I needed a father.
We only had a each other.
You were usually drunk.
You didn't remember half the time what you were doing to me.
I was suppose to be your little girl.
