I was never quite good
enough for you  I never made you happy
I never did anything right I always was left in the dust of your
life no matter how hard i tried to become
important to you I was
always left in the dust, I was always left out
I could never be the most important thing in your life why are
you still screaming at me to be better, cant you
see im trying to make things perfect cant
you see that i am trying
to hold our family together, cant you see I'm
trying to make your life better, havent you noticed I forgot
about me, but focus on you,
have you noticed that i never eat, that i never
ask you for food, that i dont cry when you scream at me, that
I always work with you even when you wont
pay me, havent you realized
that i love you , havent you realized I hate myself
havent you realized it hurts when you push me, but not as much
as you telling me im a mistake not as much as you
taking you food and refusing to
eat with us because you have work to do, havent you made
me sad enough do i hurt enough for you yet? Have i worked hard
I'm sorry I'm not enough, I'm sorry I couldn't help
you, I'm sorry I cant look you in
the eye with out
wanting to
cry
I'm
sorry
daddy
