Fatherless Dream
The man I will never know
A shadow
Not even a footstep to follow
No memories to rely
Fainted pictures
No reason to cry
Would I be what I am woe
Useless reasonings
For only God would know
My father has gone, passed from sight
Curse death for he hath won the fight
Why then do I search for thee
A heart broken
My mother crying over me
Dreams are not all they are meant to be
False hope
Knowing it wasn't left to me
Not a son to continue on
A blood linage
Lost forever in a fatherless son
