Don't Ask of Me

I often see myself in you
Odd angled mirrors
Catch me in a candid mood
Memories best faded to a dark side of a moon
The push and pull of an ocean
That was once in you

So visceral this fear in you
These words you seek
Don't ask of me
All those wrongs I can't undo
I'll finally have to let it go

I stir the echoes of my father's words
Replaying as my own
To bring me down on my own knife
As the years hang on me
Forgiveness begets no rain
I hope I'll find in my own words
Come time I give my life away

No we can't know the final end
These words you seek
Don't ask of me
All these wrongs I'll fail to mend
I'll finally have to let you go
