The Reason...
Are you alone?
Are you cold?
Are you empty?
Are you sad, confused, worthless and angry?
Are you frustrated?
Are you scared?
Scared of the world, your future success,
Scared of your habits, addictions and messes
Scared that the love you give isn't quite right or
That no matter how hard you try
the sum of your life,
will never be enough?
There's a reason.
It's because you don't know me yet.
Or you've heard of me,
or seen the ones who follow me
but said,
"No thanks,
I'm good,
I don't need that kind of complication".
Deep down inside you know who I am
but you choose to say
NO
I am a man
or woman
Who has faith in my abilities,
the goodness of humanity,
our protection with neutrality,
the toleration of BELIEFS instead of people;
that our government is our daddy,
and our hero.
You know who I am
Because I am with you
ALWAYS.
Even though your back is turned to me
blatantly ignoring
the love you could receive
because you think
you
don't
need me.
But you do,
you see,
Because even though I'm always watching
and waiting for you to turn and say,
I'M SORRY;
I will hate the things you do with your back to me.
Because it's not like I can't see
the things you choose,
because believe me,
I do.
And I will hate those things
even while I love you
because you are mine,
but you choose to leave and say,
FUCK
YOU,
I'll do things
MY
WAY.
That choice.
I gave that to you.
I gave you the opportunity to say
Yes I love you too,
or to leave.
And while I love you,
yet hate the things you do,
I will wait for you to turn to me
and say,
IM SORRY.
But if that day doesn't come,
and you've harden your heart to the point that it's against my will
to guide your's;
All the things you've done that I hate
will come back and be put on you.
Like a yolk
put around the neck of a baby.
And in the shock you will cry out
like a child in fear
of the scolding and punishment you know
is coming.
I will not hear.
Because I never knew you.
Because you never turned to me
and said,
IM
SORRY.
