Daddy

Daddy, Daddy
I love you so much!
But why is it
I can look but not touch?

Daddy, Daddy
Why won't you let me in?
I know...
You're drunk again.

Daddy, Daddy
Don't you understand?
You can't hold me
With that beer in your hand.

Tell me, Dad
What did I do?
Why can't you love me?
Why can't I get through?

Did you even want me?
Or was I just a mistake?
Did I shatter your dreams
When you married for my sake?

And why is it my fault
That you're so sad
When all I ever wanted
Was a dad?

"A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,
is God in His holy dwelling" Psalm 68:5

"Let the little children come to me, and do not
hinder them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to
such as these" Mark 10:14

"How great is the love the Father has lavished on
us, that we should be called children of God! And
that is what we are!" 1 John 3:1
