FATHER-DAUGHTER RELATIONSHIP
Laying down on her bed at peace, at rest
Curled up with teddy by her chest
Soft pale hands placed underneath her cheek
She seems to be fast asleep
Her young pure heart beats no more
Her daddy has hurt her furthermore
It started out with just a few simple words
His real feelings towards her began to unfurl
Hurtful powerful words with no trace of affection or love
His words grew, from sentences to novels
She didn't mind, she didn't care
This is her daddy, no matter what his mouth and heart say
Things started to get physical and major
Kicks and pushes, slaps and punches, the list could go on and on forever
Now her tears, she can閳ユ獩 hold back
They're falling and rolling down her cheek
She wonders why mummy isn't here
Mummy promised her that she'll be back to get her,
But where is she at? Where has she been?
She ponders about the reason why she's thrown at the rear
And why she doesn閳ユ獩 go to school
Even though it's just around the corner
She's in her room
With silent cries and quiet tears
Daddy's coming up the stairs
Quickly, she dries her eyes, puts away her feeling and cries of aid
She kneels by her bed and prays
Daddy opens the door
That's strange; he doesn't seem his usual self
His face looks different
His eyes are bright, his smile so welcoming and wide
He walks towards her slowly, in a transfixed gaze
She's on her feet and standing still, not withdrawing a single breath
He reaches out and their hands entwine
He brings her closer to himself
To feel her skin, to smell her hair
He needs to remember how she is before he does what he's got to do
He leads her to the middle of the room and tells her to close her eyes
He holds her tight and holds her hard
She opens up and the last thing she sees her daddy murdering thee
All is gloom
All is dark
He lunges forward with the knife and stabs her to her death
He grabs a pillow and places it on her face and holds it there
So secure and so tight as not to let her breathe no more
Her death, to ensure
He picks her up and off the ground
The floor, a pool of dark enriched young blood
Her heart has stopped, her lungs no longer gasping for air
Her tortured soul finally escapes,
Up high, in God's safe hands, where she'll stay
He cleans her up and with that the room
He positions her hands underneath her cheek
And combs her soft dark hair
And places her favourite teddy by her breast
She looks so sweet, so innocent, so fast asleep, forever living in her dreams.
Daddy moves away from the murder scene, downstairs to the living/TV room
Reaches down deep in his pockets, fumbling for something black
Unaware of the bloody footsteps he'd left behind,
Or his daughter's blood on his old hands
He remembered all the good times they've had, before the abuse had began
He reminded himself of her looks and her scent
And that is when he pulled put the gun,
Aimed for his head, pulled the trigger
And out flew his brains
His soul comes out and rises up to the gates of heaven
He wonders if it's too late to ask the Lord for forgiveness, to forgive his many sins
Instead of meeting Him,
He sees a beautiful young girl
With a striking resemblance to his beautiful girl, his little girl
A force is pulling them closer and closer
Face to face, they're floating
She kisses him on the cheek and they embrace
And tears pearl run down his face
She takes him by the hand and through the gates
He's confused and flustered,
He shouldn閳ユ獩 be here,
Not after what he's done
He has murdered his own flesh and blood
His daughter looks at him and says:
"Before I died, I prayed to God, daddy. I prayed that you'll live in heaven.
No matter what, even though you've sinned, even though you've killed,
And you閳ヮ毌've forgiven"
Together they soared into the haven above,
Where they rest like father and daughter,
Hand in hand, together they'll stand

Sounds like a sad true movie. On a true note, you can't get to heaven on someone else's prayer, (plus this guy kills himself) because the bible says no murderers can enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Also, it could send a perverted message to someone who's weak minded. We have too many precious kids who are abused and noone intervenes in time to help them. If this was a Stephen King movie script, maybe it would make sense. You're too deep for me.
