Averting Observations

My head hurts Stupid weather...always changing Pressing in on me Iron bars, clanging, banging .........ugh! Can't THINK This has been on me, for days Like water in a wicker basket Always draining, but always there Maybe it's me Why are THEY on my mind THEY are gone, and I'm left to find Something While THEY move on...so not fair, THEY don't even care ....to KNOW me, anymore FATHER of LOVE I must have peace Lead me to the place Where I can fully release THEM to LOVE What!?! Oh no! I know that I can see it clearly I have averted my eyes From them Judging the ones I hold dearly ...to a higher standard ................than I hold myself Forgive me, and help me pray Through compassion so that LOVE .....will lead the WAY ..........to peace.
