Andy Craig Poet I do not know?

I Walked By This World

Saying sorry to your daughter,
the words seem empty never 
enough.

I raised my voice I made her cry,
a solitary tear trickled from her eye.

In my weakness a red mist rises,
and now a flow of weeping tears 
cascades.

I have a go about her behaviour,
yet it's me who has slipped up. I 
say a prayer asking forgiveness
from my gentle loving saviour.

I'm ashamed and to blame for a 
little girl hurt, I should have walked
in gentleness instead I walked by 
this world.

I asked her forgiveness and cuddles,
and of course she forgave me, it's
time I let go and let the lord truly
lead me.
