Before
This is a girl and her father
before heading to the radio station to spend the day there together
most girls wouldn't like going to work with their dads, but she
didn't mind at all
this is trust that existed with no second guessing
two people who crave each other's company but are only granted it when the weather gets warmer
summer brings promises of being together, only after being apart for far too long
this is before all her hopes got crushed
He told her he would get better and be there for her, with her through everything
he would be the one to walk her down the aisle
but when everything got taken away from him
she was robbed of that future
those summers were ripped away from them, this picture was all she had left
to remember someone who could've tried harder but instead, broke his daughter's heart
left her with an unforgiving mother
this isn't what it appears to be- a happy daughter and father
this is a man who is struggling with his own addiction
a little girl who is all too aware
