Forgive Me

i do cry
in the silence of my darkness coz
i have killed my father
endless times
i do weep
in the bitterness of my blood coz
i have destroyed my mother
countless times
i have shed tears of blood and washed my pillows
for dreams i have shattered of my
children
i have lied robbed raped and murdered
forgive me dear
i beg you
could you kiss and wipe my tears
and then
let your mouth taste the salt and 
blood
the blood of tears and the
salt of silence
could you forgive me dear
i beg on the knees of
my sou
