Fall From Grace
Fall from Grace
By Mark Miller
03/24/2018
Betray years saving undone
For misery born Grace as
Blood leaks viscous cold
Falling through hates
Lonely endeavor
Reliving Daughter's cry
Saying missing you
Why you disappear
Where's that smiling face
Missing so much
Your giving gratitude
Wishing daily Dad
Waiting at stop interval
Worldview country fair
Pairing memory day's
Without daddy's protective
Arms reaching out
Wearing our weapons
Keeping us at odds
Behind freezing glass
Do you remember
The time we went to Library
Buying Orwell's book with
The farm animal pigs
You said but hon it's allegory
I laughed then but Dad
I'm older now no longer
Thirteen anymore
With understanding
Why letters come none
From purgatory's dungeon
Just one visit sure would help
For someday to wake up
To wrap your baby warm
Under covers comfort
So snug as a bug
