ghost rain
shadows interpreted as nothing but dust
are the memories I've kept
sadness quelled and lost in my quiet places
they haunt my thoughts
the times I've failed you
I let me down too
melancholy within
for the little beings of belief
who held me dear
I broke your trust
misfits of my heart
may I lay your ghosts to rest
forgiving is a part of giving
you left a part of yourselves I will never forget

Sincerely spill, a reflection of those times when we weren't at our best.
Beautiful words Crimsin.

good morning dearest Wally my children are all grown up now but one of them is dying due to liver cancer from drinking... often while I am awaiting sleep their childhood faces will appear I think about times I could have done better for them well that's it a lot of people probably misread this poem but you understood it thank you ❤️

I can't begin to imagine the worry and hurt you are currently going through. Watching our children suffer is the most hurtful thing anyone, especially a parent can bear.
. Reflecting on what we could have done better or the path we could have chosen always leads to more what if's. My thoughts are with you and you son/daughter
Blessings.
