The Diary of Daddy's Little Girl

October 3, 2012
By Anonymous

When daddy drinks, I run and hide.
I want to leave when he gets this way.
But to his orders I must abide.
When he finds me, I’ll surely pay.

I hear him stomping down the hall.
Maybe he’ll think I’m gone?
He opens the door and starts to call.
When he’s drunk, he does me wrong.

Will anybody come and save me?
I feel like I’m being suffocated and stuffed into a sack.
Why can’t daddy just let me be?
I can hear him coming back.

Daddy has found just where I’m sitting,
And this time, he isn’t just hitting.

The only part of this that happened to me, was the fact that my dad had anger problems and problems with alcohol. But this is for all those little girls whose Dad's took their innocence away, and how they view their families.

Thank you:) I have some close friends who were sold into prostitution as children and friends who have been in severely broken homes, and this is for them.
