Forgive Me
A father in his thirties
spent the last few years away.
I see him as a friend
in his love and through his pain
condemned to hell inside himself
for the mistake that he made.
He has a daughter,
and he thinks of her everyday...
Please forgive me...
I know that what I did
was wrong in so many ways.
I can't live without you
in my life for all of my days.
Oh believe me
when I say that I have changed...
please forgive me...
A girl in her mid teens
facing everyday and going farther.
Feeling alone inside
with Christmas around the corner
thinking of her father
who I know misses his own daughter...
Please forgive me...
I know that what I did
was wrong in so many ways.
I can't live without you
in my life for all of my days.
Oh believe me
when I say that I have changed...
please forgive me...
One day I hope
to see you two together.
I pray everyday
that you still love each other.
Both of you saved my life
in one way or another,
and I love you both
like a sister and a brother.
I pray for you like no other...
That is a really touching poem. I know a person who also has a daughter but never gets to see her. You captured the emotions well. I don't know what you could change, really. I think the poem is great how it is!
