Rest Father
Father are you listening,
If you lend me your ear.
I will make it clear.
That you no longer,
Have to fear.
The angry little girl is grown up now
And somehow I have learned,
To move on.
Now that I have children,
Of my own.
New thoughts have been born.
Even though you weren't around,
I have found,
That's it best to let the wall down.
Turn my frown upside down.
You are my father,
You help make me,
You made it possible,
For me to see,
My two babies.
I have done what it takes,
For my soul sake,
To realize human beings,
Make mistakes.
I will let your soul rest,
Father you can sleep now,
I forgive you,
I just had to let my feelings out.
