Dear dad


Your daughter is not timid I'll fight all the demons No matter the outcome You've been my armour from the day I was born But now it's my time to face the challenges So I shall, and overcome them too. I will be a survivor in this world. No I'll be the Queen. I know a new hurdle awaits me Each time I step out alone I might stumble, I might fall But Daddy, your daughter is not afraid She has your blood in her veins, Your words in her mind. I'll walk forth with a new zeal and reach for the horizon You've taught me never to give up And I promise, I'll make you proud I might fail once But Daddy, your daughter is not afraid I'll emerge a winner I'm elegant, I walk with Grace Whilst I'm a fierce lioness Ready to prey on those who try to victimise me With their opinions, their notions so old I'll change this. I promise. Daddy, your daughter is brave and bold. And if ever fall, you'll be around. I know you will, won't you, Daddy?
