Kyle Perkins Poet Rhyme

Their Greatest Flaw

In his dreams and thoughts he prayed
As his path and light did fade
A voice said, "Hear my message and learn from me.
Then you shall surely and truly see."
That confusion was building inside his mind and brain
It sticks to his thoughts and dreams like a stain
He exhaled and what he saw
Was himself, their greatest flaw
They had created what they never wanted to create
They did not know that raising him was their fate
That raising a dark and lonely being
They started seeing
That he had many troubles ahead
His hands would be stained with red
But love him they did, he did not know why
Made him break down and start to cry
They loved their boy, their greatest flaw
Their boy who had betrayed the law
He thanked them and then he flew
For he had surely and truly knew
