'papa'

Here i am,
all alone i come,
to tell you how
sorry i am,
for what i had
become.

You are the best of
the best friends i
have,
and i don't want us
to lose what we
have,
so i have to work
hard on my part,
that i may not be
cut,
from the paradise i
sol long.

You are ever loving,
your glory is
overcoming,
in this world you
are my everything,
you have taught me
to live believing,
yes 'papa' i live
for you.

For your son you
gave,
for me to live,
what can i give,
'papa' myself i
give.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
