An emotional poem, about a young girls struggle with her father.
Be careful when you touch me
For if you push to hard I’ll bruise

And when you speak
Speak gently
For my emotions I will lose

For if you strike upon me there
More excuses I must make

Nobody really knows

But I hope that day will come
When everyone will see
