DADDY OPEN

MY WORLD WAS THREE YEARS OLD AT THE TIME,
WHEN SHE MADE MY LIFE STOPED ON A DIME. 
THE FIRST TIME SHE SAID IT WAS A SURPRISE,
"DADDY OPEN" MADE TEARS IN MY EYES.
ON THE PHONE, BEHIDE SOME GLASS;
SWEARING TO MYSELF IT WAS MY LAST.
I WILL BE GOOD AND I WONT SHOW OUT
                                  SO THEY WONT SEND ME TO TIME OUT.
TO HER AND MYSELF I TOLD A LIE,
I COULDNT WAIT TO GET HIGH.
AS YEARS WENT BY I BEGAIN TO REMEMBER
MY FOOT ON THE DOOR ONLY TO HINDER.
THROUGH THE NIDDLE MY PAIN WAS MEND.
"DADDY OPEN" SHE SAID AGAIN.
I COULDNT LET HER SEE ME LIKE THIS,
SO I PUFFED UP AND LET OUT A HISS.
GO AWAY A I'LL BE OUT IN A MIN,
FORCING WORDS AS MY HEAD WAS SPENDEN.
IN THE DARKNESS, I BEGAIN TO FALL,
BUT GOD MADE SURE THAT I HEARD IT ALL.
ALL HER EGGS WAS IN ONE BASKET,
MY WORLD WAS OUTSIDE MY CASKET.
HER HOPES AND DREAMS CAME TO A STOP
I COULD HAVE WON IF I WOULD HAVE FOUGHT.
THE LAST WORDS I WOULD EVER HEAR SPOKEN,
MY WORLD CRYEN, BEGGING "DADDY OPEN"

like your poem. sounds like it comes from real experience. way to go writing so many! you should keep writing :)

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
