The Heavens knew them before I did...
Things go wrong, as they often do. Listening to the Devil as she whispers in our ear. Walking away with doubts in your head that leads you two. Knowing what I've done, was to protect you from bad. High end Sight is something we all must have. To stay and take the words that burrow deep within our Heart. To take a do over to lead me back to the start. A father does things, not all are for the best. If either of you needed a Heart, I'd pull it from my chest. Anger is an awful thing. Making words come out, leaving with a pinching sting. Compelling us to yell at the Heavens as we scream and shout. Protecting a Little Girl that needed her Daddy by her side. Makes my Words of Anger diminish and subside. The truth of the matter is clear as Heaven above. Every night I lay on the pillow missing them with tears. Strength and Hope like water to the flame, extinguishing bitterness and fears.
