Father Show Me

by Robert   Oct 17, 2004


I do not want to write this out of hate,
for I wish a happier ending for this fate.
All the pain I held inside for these years,
have to one head as of my greatest fears.
I been tossed around no real place for me,
and no real father who can show me what I can be.
I have hated you with no regret at one time,
but I know that is just my crime.
All I want is to see your face and,
show you father that you are still in my good grace.
I want to tell you how wrong my life was when you went away,
and through it all you were the only gift I wanted to pray.
Tears in my eyes thinking you did not’t loved me anymore,
and to ask why did you really walk out that door.
I was only eight when you decided to jet out of my life,
hiding from the responsibility and not helping me through the strife.
I was Molested and then I went to foster care,
still I had no mother and father just a soul left in despair.
Alone I am now to carry the weight on my shoulder,
hoping that God’s plan for me is not to get any colder.
If I was to ask God for one thing,
it would be that your company he will bring.
Come and show me the love I feel in my heart I was denied,
for farther I am your child and you have no reason to hide.
If you love me then I can forget our past,
please take my hand and let a new relationship last.
Do you love for me like I do for you,
please come and show me you do.
