Love lies

You will never understand,
Your approval means the world,
I do everything I can,
Just to get told,
Be quiet,
Or go away,
I'm like a fish caught in a net,
I can't find a way,
To swim out,
To feel part of something "we" made,
I just get spit out,
Try to win your next game,
Do you understand when I try to reach out,
Do you know I cry at night,
I bet you do and don't even pout,
That isn't right,
I am your daughter right,
To love and protect,
Love is just a lie,
If we look,
Through my fathers eyes.
