miss her every day

i was always so into being a daddy to my girl, but deep down i miss having that responsibility and seeing her grow. we started off strong, training sessions where she’d wear the little girl clothes and we’d do exercises together. it felt good, making her stronger both physically and mentally. she called me dad every day for years, always needing guidance and protection. then one day, out of nowhere, she decided to end it all. said she needed to find herself without any labels or roles. i tried to understand but deep down, part of me feels like i failed. we’re still friends, but it’s never the same. sometimes i wonder if i could convince her to give it another try. but mostly i just feel lost and a bit lonely.
