Father

Father

Father please forgive me,
I have not visited in awhile.
To be with you I feel free,
but your light has faded from my smile

Wanting more but giving less.
Stressless pause within confess.
Continue on within my mess.
Life's senseless wander; soul's unrest.

So to you I look for light,
for confusion I've lost my path.
Blinded by my own short sight,
here and now instead of aftermath.

I don't know you all that well,
still condoneless choices I do know.
I've created my earthly hell,
through homeless souls cold winds blow.

So father please give me reparations,
for myself, my faults, my flaws.
Trapped within body's limitations,
soul waits, towards the light I crawl.

I am one of many children,
and I know there are safer bets.
So until we speak again,
don't give up on me, not yet.
