3 Shades of Poetry

Image Of My Dad

A lot of things I kept inside, but it’s time to express now

The love, the anger, the joy that followed you around

I wanted that, for that’s what I craved

On many occasions brought you closer to the grave

Everlasting memories of your advice

An outstanding travel led to Jesus Christ

It took kidney failure and negative strikes

But a transformation was becoming liked

The destructive shock of news concerning dialysis

Hopes and dreams faced malice

An innocent surgery was beginning to collapse

A tick through the mind was starting a depressing tap

I felt your pain as you held it in

A chance at long life was starting to descend

The lost of a finger by a saw blade

Still, you remain strong overcoming rage

As demons try to intercept

A focus path with God, you accepted

It deeply touched me on how you refuse to get pissed

Alone at night, a life of loneliness

Even though we sometimes disagree

I take heed to the words you speak

Regardless how people toward you may judge

You’ve shown me a difference now and how life was

A part of me is a part of you that know

You helped guided me to the cross road

Steps on my own facing your history

Learning from your faults, achievement I’ll meet

I promise to make it more easier

Touching hearts with honest words

Angel of love with tears and sweat
