If I fixed my lips to say, I love you
Would those words even mean anything?
Often, there was only silence and interactions of rue
And when you walked away, I blossomed in spring.
Yet, now, these petals lie beneath me
In oceans of tears-in oceans of blood,
Flowing over, ever so abundant and free
And I swim without effort, wishing to drown if I could,
So I could utter the words I failed to say-
So I can see you standing in front of me again today.
In simplicity, I looked through it all
And forgot what you truly were, my father.
You were the only man I had,
So if you are looking down upon me
Or whether you choose to ignore me…
I may not have said it then, but I always loved you.
