Barely Living

Another birthday goes by
And Daddy still misses you

He deleted all his poems
because they were painful
But now what does he do?

He writes yet another poem for you

Maybe because you're always in my thoughts
Tearing me apart and making me beg

Mercy would have taken me the day you died

Yet,

Unfortunately I'm still here
Alive, but barely living.
