Lost Ca

Absolve me from these sins you have placed before my feet I can never be free from the way you look at me Were my deeds so atrocious Will you never see beyond the past For me it was a different lifetime For you the allure of days gone by makes my every mistake Seem like yesterday Must I constantly need to assuage your delicate constitution I must be free of these chains Can you not see they are killing me The allure of a lasting sleep is overwhelming Come lay down next me No my appetency for seeing things through Will not allow room for this fantasy We had an auspicious beginning to our journey together But somewhere at one fork or another we took the wrong path Now we have come too far to turn around I have not given up on you I will never give up on you Please do not give up on me 10/17/2019 Crazy A's Poetry Contest Sponsored by John Hamilton
