Forgive

My hunger aches
You feed me
These lips are parched
You give me drink
Hold my head
Gaze inside me
Our eyes say what
We could not speak

I kiss the kind hand
Taste the fingers in my mouth
As I lay here dying
The air is cold my skin is hot

As glass beads melting
Roll down my face
I won’t cry out
It’s not the way
I can’t forget

I can not forget
To beg I can’t
Forget to beg
I can’t forget to beg I can't
Forget your fingers in my mouth

This is the time for forgiveness
So father forgive
Her heart bleeds in his stomach
So mother can live
This is the time for forgiveness
So father forgive
Her heart bleeds in his stomach
So mother can heal
