Open Your Eyes

Contributed by RussellReinhardt on Tuesday, 20th November 2012 @ 01:14:25 PM in AEST
Topic: anguished



Our tears are on your hands.
As BB's and I cross our vast land.
To our new home.
Where we will live alone.
Without a mommy and wife.
Do you truly think we're going to enjoy life?
The ones that love you the most.
Yes we're going to dwell in your thoughts like a ghost.
You don't want us to see you dying.
My God you're joking or lying!
BB's tears are raging like the river Nyl.
Is this what you've become and your style?
You want to die in peace.
The only way to get that is go on your knees.
Beg God to forgive your dead.
Let your tears flow and beg Him please please.
You I truly don't hate.
But for us somehow I think it's too late.
We will always love you yes we do.
But we must go on and start anew.
For you we will always pray.
In our hearts you will always stay.
We are grateful for the time with you we had.
Leaving you for us is so bitter and sad.
We will always remember the good time.
Unfortunately the bad ones will stick to our pallet like bad wine.
Yes this is bittersweet.
And no it's not to lighten your feet.
I want you to realize.
What you've done open your eyes.

Sometimes it's refreshing to say write what you want to say to someone. At least for me it is anyway.. Great job, really enjoyed it..

I can understand this very well. I will say no more.
