In the shadows of my longing heart,
A void, a silence tears apart,
The promises whispered, now remain untold,
Left stranded, as memories unfold.
Oh, father, your absence weighs so deep,
Like an ocean's wave, relentless, it seeps,
Each pledge, a beacon lost in the night,
Leaving me adrift, seeking solace's light.
Alone, I stand, a castaway in despair,
Abandoned echoes, filling the air,
My soul cries out for an angel's embrace,
To guide, to shelter, in this desolate space.
As thoughts swirl, a tempest's gale,
I long for peace, a heart's unveiled tale,
Yearning for a home beyond this strife,
Where hope ignites the dormant life.
In this wilderness of solitude's embrace,
I seek a haven, a different place,
A new horizon, a family to call my own,
Where love and solace are brightly sewn.
Dear father, hear my silent plea,
Wrap me in grace, set my spirit free,
For though words falter, my heart sings true,
In search of solace, in search of you.
