Please Just Hold Me.

Daddy. I will always love you.
No matter what happens.
Between us.

When my world tears apart at the seams
when my heart is cracked and scarred
when my eyes threaten to drown in tears

...
Please tell me you'll be by my side
you are the protection I look for
but you never seem to be here when I need you most

...
When my day makes me want to disappear
when my soul is heavy with the pain
when the tears leave wet tracks down my face

...
Please promise you'll be by my side
when I need you the most
with your arms to hold me safe

...
No please don't talk
words are said
then they become just a distant memory

...
Hold me
touch is real
it stays with you even if it is just for a moment

...
When we throw curses at each other
when we look at each other in disgust
when all I really want is for you to hold me in your arms

...
Like you did when I was your baby girl
don't make me go through the pain again
just hold me
and let me think everything is alright for just a moment
