You conceived me, and then you let me go, did you
ever love me, you could have at least told me so.
For so many years, I pretended you were near,
I felt your arms around me, telling me I was your little girl,
and I had nothing to fear.
How I miss you holding me up in the air, spinning and twirling without any cares, You let me stand on your toes as we danced all around.
I especially loved it when you pushed me on the swing,
I felt protected and so carefree, and ready to sing.
Everyday I would pretend you would be at home, to care for me and not leave me all alone.
I needed you more than you would ever know, I missed your laughter, hugs, your snuggles and your love.
Then one day I decided I would have to go and try to find my daddy to love him and get to know.
Do you love me, I really have to know.
I went to see you, and then you beat me even though. You’re anger and hatred really damaged my soul.
You loved me so long ago, but know I see that I need to let you go.
You brought me into this world. You abandoned and left me full of fear. You can’t imagine or even see that bottle you left is full of tears.
I decided today, that in my heart and mind you died, I collected every thought of anger, rejection, fear and pride. I put it in a box and buried you deep down in the ground, way down inside.
You see, I found someone who’s loved me all along, He took your place when you could not be found.
I have a father a Heavenly Father, whose been trying to come in, and I made a decision today to finally let Him in.
I never knew how wonderful Gods love could be,
He has set this little child free.
Daddy, I’m now happier than I’ve ever been, how about you will you open up and let Him in?
