The Web Poetry Corner - Crystal Dawn Allen - forgive me
forgive me
by
Crystal Dawn Allen
i saw your soul
your soul was a star
it was brighter than white
hotter than fire
you were a shadow behind a screen
i cannot count the hours
i spent dreaming of your face
or whispering prayers to you
when my hand was resting above you
did you curse me for
covering up the whole world
did you curse me for
blocking the sun
will you forgive me,
my son
you demanded food,
and i obeyed
you demanded sleep,
and i obliged
you demanded life,
and i was hesitant
the decision took too long
did you curse me for
my frailty
did you curse me before
your god
did you tell him i
covered up the whole world
did you tell him i
tried to block the sun
will he forgive me,
my son
