Father

Andile Chagi


He came at the right time
Although he has always been there
I tried to get up and make it happen
But he pulled me down everytime
I did not understand at first
Why the punishment
Have I not suffered enough
Am I not worthy
I was drowning in misery

BUT

I forgot to listen
To the words
The surroundings
The energy
TIME

It wasn't my time just yet
And now it is
Here I am
Before you thy holy
Loved and given strength
Wisdom to carry others

I may not understand it all
But I am listening
And I am grateful
