Where Are You Sleep?

Everyone is off to bed
The oldest one was first to shut her eyes
One by one the teens were in their jammies 
But the little one first needs to be fed
Soon she dozes off like everyone else

Exchanges of "Good nights" and "Sweet dreams"
The day has finally come to an end 
The bed looks like it beams
Fluffy pillows awaits and would gladly lend 
A heavenly comfort and a tired soul's mend

It is now past midnight 
But the eyes resist the lure of sleep
The lamp's little ray was the only light 
To shut the humming sounds with all the might
Where are you sleep?

A Fatherless Child


A fatherless child, she was
A little girl treated like a queen
With a dear mom and the rest of the kin
A hug from uncle; from gramps, a kiss on the chin
Then, love was enough for her
  
A fatherless child, she was
The girl grew up; had to move away
New city, new friends; the family was at bay
 Going with the flow; riding the tides of the day
Then, love was distant for her

A fatherless child, she was
Another chapter, a new beginning 
For a young lady, it was utterly exciting
Longings and stirrings make the heart go pondering
Then, love was a wondrous thing for her

A fatherless child, she was
A new world she entered with ardor  
To meet the King whom they call the savior
The epitome of a perfect father; secretly yearned for
Then, love was glorious for her
  
A fatherless child, she was
A tragedy struck; it shattered her heart
A kiss on the chin no more; a lifetime apart
To forget will take forever; sorrow has become her part  
Then, love was broken for her

A fatherless child, she was
She must go on; continue her story
Soon the journey marks a quarter of a century
  Only to realize, a path was paved towards mediocrity  
Then, love was passive for her

A fatherless child, she was
A young lady aged beyond her years
The burdens of life has brought endless tears  
Depression took over; paralyzed by the unspoken fears  
Then, love was lost for her

A fatherless child, she was
Slapped with the truth: she was unwanted
A sea of hatred from the deepest it all erupted
A gaping hole; the heart was permanently pierced
Then, love was crushed for her

A fatherless child, she was
A weary soul; lonely beyond belief
Only one’s embrace can quench the grief
Never to be complete; Not a chance to savor relief
Then, love was cold for her

A fatherless child, she was
A prodigal child; a confused wanderer
Blame, anger, doubt towards her perfect father
Stuck on a crossroad; too many questions with no answer
Then, love was confusing for her

A fatherless child, she was
The search for meaning was futile
On her own, she was a prisoner on exile
But with open arms, the King awaits from a mile
Then, love was restored for her

A fatherless child, no more
A moment of clarity; it was a liberation
Embrace her purpose; goodbye to indignation
Finally, a perfect father’s love brought in completion
Then, love was perfect for her
