On Bended Knee

InvisibleMan

On bended knee, I honor thee.

 

For when I walked, you walked with me.

 

You've stood beside me, and held me up,

 

Supported me and filled my cup.

 

And when I fell, you helped me rise,

 

Never failing me, you heard my cries.

 

And now as an old man today,

 

I want you to know my love, I shan't betray.

 

And while my days are numbered, I do want more.

 

For this my love, I know the score.

 

I owe you much more than you'll ever know.

 

But I also know I need to let you go.

 

My heart is broken but my mind is healing.

 

A hope that time will bring a love revealing.

 

As I get on my way to let you be,

 

I want you to know, I honor thee.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Part of my healing. Finding my way forward from a life where I have felt unheard, unseen, unvalued, unloved. And with that I brought dysfunction to my life with my wife and my children. And worst of all, lost the relationship with my wife, my very best friend.
