Memories

I remember you sitting by yourself lost in your thoughts
I remember you giving back occasional smile
Memories conjuring mixed emotions
I remember you singing opera as a joke
I remember you drawing cartoons on a newspaper
Memories conjuring mixed emotions
Back it’s all so superficial since I never really knew you
It’s all so superficial i never really knew you
I was undoubtedly linked to you
But I always felt so disconnected
The good moments were so few
And you were too far to ever be redirected
I remember you coming home some kind of mist in your eyes
I remember you lost in your artificial paradise
Memories conjuring mixed emotions
Back it’s all so superficial since i never really knew you
Just floating on the surface
I never really knew you
I was undoubtedly linked to you
But I always felt so disconnected
The good moments were so few
And you were too far to ever be redirected
I wonder if there was any guilt
For depriving us
Of moments to cherish
Of memories to hold on to
For pushing us away
Now I sometimes wonder how it could have been
Now I look back and understand
The only thing remaining
A father and a son
And forgiveness
Forgiveness
Forgiveness …
