Dear Dad

Things that I want to tell my dad, but can't bring myself to. Maybe one day...

Dear Dad,

 

I know that I don’t tell you a lot…

I love you

I know that I don’t spend enough…

Time with you

I know that I don’t…

Talk to you enough

I know that I don’t tell you…

How much you mean to me

I know that I should tell you…

How much it would hurt if you were gone

You should know…

How much you mean to me

You should know that…

You didn’t screw up completely with me

You should know that no matter what…

I’ll always be you little girl

I wish I would’ve told you…

That no matter what happens, I could never stay mad at you

 

I know you meant well

I know you didn’t mean to hurt me…

To break me…

To shatter everything I had tried so hard to keep together…

I’m not sure if I can pick myself up again…

And I want you know that it’s not you’re fault…

 

No matter how many times you leave me…

No matter how many times you break me…

No matter how much you don’t act like it…

I know that deep down; you’ll always love me…

 

If you leave me, I hope to God you come back

If you break me, I hope to God you glue the pieces back together

If you act like you don’t love me, I hope to God you do

But most of all, I hope to God you know how much I love you
