In these final hours
Before I pass
There are things you need to know
About my past
You see I’m not man you think I am
Things that I have done have left me damned
Its not to God but you that I confess
He past is judgment long ago and he knows best
But in your eyes I pray forgiveness lies
And maybe I will see it there before I die
See I’ve done the worst a man can do
I’ve sacrificed it all but sheltered you
You’re the only saving grace I leave behind
For you I’ve been nothing less that good and kind
Please hold my hand and let me rest
Lay your head one last time upon my chest
Let me know the warmth of your caress
Your happiness is all to you that I bequest
Goodbye
Susan
This is heartwrenching...sad poem Michael!!
