SELFISH LOVE

 SELFISH LOVE

Please Father Time.. grant me a wish
Let me return.. to a day I was
remiss
Give me the chance.. to right a wrong
Allow me time.. to change the song
What was once hidden.. has come to light
A moment in time.. has become endless night
Once again evil.. the role that I played
Now on display.. my body I betrayed

Please Mother Earth.. I appeal to thee
Allow my soul.. a chance of reprieve
Granted a gift.. I foolishly returned
Now blood on my hands.. rightfully
burns
A slap in the face.. for a precious cargo made
My body holds sorrow.. a guilt with no shade

Please Father Time.. help me make it
through
I tried to fool my heart.. but I couldn’t fool you
Wall of protection.. that never held ground
Body retaliates.. no vacancy to be found
Took the life of my own.. branded in shame
Guilty as charged.. life sentence my fame

Please Mother Earth.. absolve me of this tale
Made to bare life.. N purposely I failed
How do I reconcile.. her life for mine
Mothers are to nurture.. how did I miss the sign
Tears fall and bleed.. no room left for pride
Forever tortured.. by the angel once inside

Please Father Time.. turn back the clock
Give me a chance.. to be as steady as a rock
I have the strength now.. to hold her soul
On bended knee I cry.. grant me parole
A voyeur of life.. crippled in regret
Stained on my heart.. a permanent
debt

Please Mother Earth.. concealment is denied
My heart is in tatters.. I can no longer
hide
The ‘M’ on my chest.. is there for all to see
Branded a murderer.. for all eternity
Time to face facts.. too late to erase
No one to blame.. but the reflection of face

Don’t bother Father Time.. it’s too late for my soul
Dug a grave deep enough.. and its swallowed me whole


Oh Mother Earth.. PLEASE spread my
plea
It only takes a moment.. to show your capability

    dear friend, I know you pain, and what you have suffered, and I want to thank you for being the voice for all those out there who have suffered the same and cannot speak out from their suffering and for those who’s lives where taken from such brutality. Thank you for being the voice of the suffering
    love asha
