Why arent you here for me, by Little Miss Perfect Subscribe to rss feed for Little Miss Perfect

Dad, you hardly know me
You say you miss me and you say that your sorry
but I cant believe you anymore
I have been lied to over and over again
and I am tired of it. 
Why arent you here for me when I need you to be? 
Why cant you just call
Why cant you send me the money I need so I can go to a good
school? 
If you say you love me then why arent you here, why arent
you here?
Dad, if you love me like you say you do, then why are you so
mean, why do you lie to your only daughter? Why cant you
just BE HERE FOR ME?

Great poem! My dad is a perfect match to your dad. And I know it hurts. But I think things will work out for good! I'll keep you in my prayers! Bless you. Take care.

its a bad beat. you need rythm or it just sounds silly.

I dont think it neccessarily needs rhythm, its a poem you put the rhythm in when you read it. Theres nothing wrong with that.

Don't let him get you down. make the best of what you've got! Things are as good as you make them out to be. Don't let him interfere(or how ev u spell it)with the path to the person you want to be. As far as the poem goes, people need to realize that it doesn't take rhythum or rhyming to make it a poem, it takes felling from your heart! Good Luck in Life 2 all!

that was good. it didn't need to rythm.A good writer is someone that writes from the heart, and I say that was from the heart. Hey! don't give up,keep hanging in there. Just remember there are people that do love you. so you need to focus on that and keep up your writing from the heart poems.
