Little Girl

Daddies be there for your little girl. Your presence is so vital to our existence.
"He will restore the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers" Malachi 4:6

She was brought into this world as a result of sin
But there' no question...she was predestined
A blessing...in disguise
It's true that God can use the foolish things to confound the wise
She came as a surprise but not in God's time
Her purpose was to shine and bring light to her father's eyes
A young man who didn't understand what it meant to be a man
or a dad to ay the least
17 with no dreams but she showed him the true meaning of life
He was happy but overwhelmed
He couldn't handle the responsibilities
so mommy used baby as a threat till he would get it right
But that day never came
So one day, mommy packed up her things and drove away from her pain
While baby played in the backseat
not realizing she would be leaving what she would need most
Years pass, and now baby's all grown up
Still a little girl but a little girl in a womanly body
Her mind doesn't match her physique
Feminity incomplete
Insecure and not sure of her worth
because a healthy girl is built up by her father's words
Her confidence is built by compliments by men who only see her as an object
Her one true desire in life, is just to be held
by masculine arms that will never leave
She truly believes that she is not worthy to be loved
So she developed a mentality of thinking that giving is the key
to make him stay
Bending over backwards...compromising herself just so he wouldn't leave
But in the end she's left empty carrying his seed
History repeats & now she's left without peace
She can't rest unforgiveness & bitterness dwells in her chest
All she ever wanted was to be loved & caressed
But in this test..She finally could see
That the love she was searching for was right there all along
It's all she would need
This unconditional love came from above...
God is a father to the fatherless
His love will never leave:)

  1. this really hit home to me. I grew up without a father. Although other circumstances in my childhood definitely charted the young woman I was, I often wondered how different life would have been had my father been there.

    Now that I'm 40, I have come to understand that my past is not an "excuse" for the decisions I make today. It took me a while to accept that.

    One of my fav songs is John Mayers "Daughters". There's so much I could rant about when it comes to women here, girl. The way hip hop and the media portray women and what our young girls and boys are seeing, etc. etc.

    Glad we connected :)
