Father


Why don’t you love me? Why the consistent shudder Why won’t the love ever be? Why don’t you let my heart flutter? I wish you would care I wish once in your eyes I did something right I wish you didn’t like to hear my heart tare I wish you could once be that light I’m sorry that I’m not perfect I’m sorry trust me I tried I’m sorry please my love don’t reflect I’m sorry but my heart is fried Listen to the word Listen to my many cries Listen please God help us Lord Listen to my heart it just not going to arise Don’t show me love when you need me Don’t try to lift me up Don’t this is just temporary this is forever lost at sea Don’t my heart might just erupt
