Silent Message
Oh wise one from days gone bye,
Great old man from whom I shy...

Can you forgive me for all my deeds?
All my words and lack of deeds?

Can you forgive me for my lack of words?
All my thoughts and lack of words?

Can you forgive me for my lack of thoughts?
The hollow shell for which a mind is sought?

I'm sorry now for what I didn't say.
What good will it do, now that you're away?

Forgive me Dada, for I have sinned;
I waited a day, and now shan't win.

So forgive me, sir, for my silent voice:
I didn't speak when I had the choice.

Another day here, another day gone,
But now you're away, and for you they are done.

Silent voice and broken sob,
Unknown whispers from a broken bob...

Forgive me now, for my hidden past;
For you it is over; For me the pain lasts...
