Forgive Me Father

Forgive me Father
When I come to stay with you
I don't know what to do.
Hi Dad.
Hi Son.
....silence.
A cold and terrible silence.
I hate the narrow bridge between us,
But I can't widen it out.
Is that an excuse for not trying?
Sad eyes gaze into longing eyes.
Which set is mine?

Forgive me Father
In our conversation of the day
I don't know what to say.
Goodmorning.
Goodnight.
....silence.
A cold and terrible silence.
I hate that we are so strained,
But I can't smooth it out.
Is that an excuse for not trying?
Sad eyes gaze into longing eyes.
Which set is yours?

This first draft of this was some serious emotional throw up, but I'm proud of it now that it's been edited. My Mom and Dad are divorced, so I live with Ma. When I go off to Dad's house, things get pretty strange.
