Apologies in advanced.

My heart filled with grief,
Because I want to understand.

***

Made beautifully flawed
Born with gifts and handcuffs.
Did you or I put them there?
Haven’t I blamed you enough?

Mentor me without a word said
Speak life for all to see.
Even when they cover their eyes
And I say abandon me.

Tell me, who is more reckless?
I, whom runs from you
And departs from wisdom?
Or you, who still pursues?

I see those who cannot eat.
Who’s minds have deteriorated
Or have drank into another state.
And yet you don’t deviate?

Why?

Why put this in front of me?
It only leads to depression
Seeing a darkening world
And not a word do you mention.

Then I notice my state.
Everyday, lessening.
And yet you go on
To claim me as a blessing.

Though I don’t understand
I accept your decision.
If this is the world you want
I will be the revision.

Undeniably helpless
Undeniably flawed.
I stand to gain nothing
Not even applause.

And its upon those lines
Where I was no longer tense
This world isn’t for my glory
That wouldn’t make any sense.

To push my own agenda
Would only be the theory of man.
First comes submission
Before I can truly understand.

***

My heart grieves for work I’ve neglected.
I have blamed you enough, haven’t I?
