A Crying Father

A Poem by Radicaldreamer

Dearest night of crimson flame, A Tale of a fathers loss of his beloved child, a girl forever loved.

Fathers Spoken Words

Dearest night of crimson flame

Rebirth my shallow heart lost in a sunken grave

Give to me that which faded away,

Lost with the crying child I held for so long;

Darkest shadow, show me the vagrant hopes

Flaunting in front of me taunting my memories

Of this father here on broken knees

Screaming for that which,

Lay motionless in my arms;

Midnights ablaze setting my soul on fire

Please let me spin a prayer tonight

So I may see my life unburdened

To see this tainted girl

Die so young without a hope

Without a mother to drape her mortal body

For a father to Say I Love You Sweet Child

A faithful shimmer of my fading hands

Holding close to me that which

I tried so hard to save with a crimson glow;

Darling wife, please forgive me

Gods whispers of relief at a sweet rebirth

When I was able to here the innocent cries

Of a tearful baby free of a broken heart;

My tears wane for you my brilliant bride

Lost under the stars giving to me that which we most desired

A perfect being of our midnights love

I weave this prayer under the coming dawn

As I lay a light kiss of a moonlit night

Whispering “Dear Child I Love You”

My prayer is you reach your mother so far away

Here where a father sulks on broken knees

Bathed in a crimson red.
