Question:

What do you think of my poem? Do you like it??

This poem was just written when I was creatively drained, and I needed a good boost. The poem is actually about a father, no not my father, I love my father (99% of the time) and he is not dead. The poem's about a dead father, from a daughter's point of view. Just let me know what you think!

I never thought I'd have to push and shove,
just for a bit of my father's love.
He never called me "daddy's little girl",
Never spun me into a childish twirl.
He never read me a tale from my favorite story book,
Never helped me make a clubhouse in a small private nook.
He never danced with me in the rain,
he never kissed away the pain.
He never taught me how to wait,
But now it's too late.

He never crossed the street holding my hand tight,
Never chased away the monster in the middle of the night.
He never looked at me in awe with pride,
He never came to comfort me when I cried,
So how come I feel his arms around me, after he's died?

I really need help coming up with a title! I want something nice, yet gentle and calm. I'd really appreciate it!

I'm 13, by the way. I don't know many places who'll accept work by a 13 year old. I guess I could lie about my age...
