@anonymously99stwin,
She may had not been a daddy's girl
But she picked up on some
She had asked herself, wonder if he's noticed. thinking it
Had he been paying attention?, observing well.
She may never know

Elementary
Never able to fully understand things
She was smart but she knew she could had done better
She had the feeling of not caring too much
She's, hiding, keeping something
Sixth grade
Never able to fully understand things
She's among the smart
It meant something to her
But then meant nothing
She's, hiding, keeping something
Junior high
Never able to fully understand things
She feels nothing matters
Grades becoming worse
Her life becoming worse
Making other's life difficult
High school
Never able to fully understand things
Things only becoming worse
Confused, no where to turn
She understands nothing

Relocation
Cool day in December
After mid day
Wet out
Crossed road between school and sets of houses
Walking
Everywhere snow
Had always been difficult to think clearly
Sidewalk
Thinking to herself, need to get home.
All that was on her mind
Something always bothering her in the back of her mind
Came to the four lane
Full of running vehicles
Getting home all she wanted
No patience
Didn't know patience
Didn't want to have it
Made a run for it
Yes, first three crossed
Oh, this is what she had been seeing in previous weeks
In shock, surprised, not understanding...
Waking
But can't completely
Soon transferred to a bigger place
Unable to understand her feelings
Always, was
Discovered what happened
She's a little "slow", therapist mentioned
But she never understood
