&ldquo;I believe in everything until it&#039;s disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it&#039;s in your mind. Who&#039;s to say that dreams and nightmares aren&#039;t as real as the here and now?&rdquo; <br /> ― John Lennon


Why do we have to be so far apart?

I’m all on my own,
Nowhere to go…
  Stranded…
   Lost.

Sometimes I wish things were different
Maybe you’d still be here.

I can’t comprehend what your silence is proclaiming.

As your daughter, it should be clear to me
Your love should be obvious to the human eye…
  But it’s not…

All those words you said…

Why daddy, why?

Am I really that bad?
