The weight of these thoughts bares heavy
On my mind today
I think i loved you once but it really is hard to say
You lay there in that coffin
Blue, cold and nothing like the man i once new
A face that I do not recognise
I cannot see myself in you
I think of how i hated you and how i hate you still
I will myself to love you, but unfotunately i cannot
I weep tears of sorrow, but not for you
The tears i weep this day are for a man i never new
These thoughts of mine bare heavy, on my soul today

Welcome ANGELA ~ Thanks for sharing your first Poem. MPS is an EMPATHETIC site so you will get some supportive replies.
Your POEM is very elegantly penned ~ BUT with a tragic message. My parents are very important to ME and ANGELA'S (my Fiancee) to Her. However the scenario you describe is not uncommon for a variety of reasons. Im 35 and I have Friends who did not even bother to attend their Father's funeral. Thinking of YOU.
Love & Blessings BRIAN & ANGELA

Thank you for the kind message. Much love x
Any goodbye hurts and it varies. The loss of a hero, loved one, and a father must hurt even though how little you were connected by blood and maybe something else but was taken to early from you to see it. Beautifully written and somber poem. Keep up the great work. And also welcome to MPS.
