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
