The dream of daddy

I remember the day u said" I will always be here"
but then u next thing I know,
we were planning a funeral.
My anger grew, "how could u lie to me" I screamed.
I began life with hurt so deep inside of me.
But no one could see.
The pain I caused to myself.
the scars were hidden.
The Long nights spent...in the darkness of my room with a knife beside me.
The blood staining the floor.
Yet no one knows it but me.
I go on through life with a smile.
With a so called laugh.
Yet no one has seen through it.
When alone ... My tears fall, they hit the ground as I look at your picture. "Daddy. U promised me." is all I can utter.
I fall asleep with his picture next to my heart.
Next thing I know, daddy is embracing me.
Hugging me and saying he loves me.
He talks about the past, present, and the future.
He grabs my hand and takes me down a road called "life" he shows me what I can be.
I watch as I feel daddys arms embrace me.
He lifts me off the ground and I hug him back.
It was like he never left.
He takes me and tells me jokes, he tickles me.
And he kisses my forehead saying "it's time to go back"
I scream and plead "no no!! Let me stay with u! Please daddy I cant live without u! You see my life, it's so hard without u here! Please daddy let me stay here"
I look as his eyes fill with tears, but he still takes my hand and hugs me once again.
He kisses me forehead and next thing I know I'm Lying on my bed.
I stand up and hear the words "never give up. I love u Selena" my lips smile a real smile and my eyes moisten.
For then I have realized daddy has never left.
He was just a dream away. <3
