a father's pride

never there before
always far away
i can’t take much more
i don’t know the way
if maybe you were here
then maybe i could hide
i could shield myself
with my father’s pride

but you
have never been here
can’t wait
around for you
if i stay/scream
will my voice be heard
above
all the rest
i won’t know
until you tell me
why
this seemed best

no one here with me
to help me thru
i’m always alone
because of you
