You cry to me <br />Beg for acceptance. <br />Pray that I might forget <br />A sin that for you is unforgivable. <br /> <br />Yes, I say, of course. <br /> <br />But we both have the knowledge of neglect. <br />Like a persistent child it nags at the hidden wound. <br /> <br />Where were you when I was that child? That needing child? <br /> <br />Again you cry, tears of the past that cannot change, for a future uncertain. <br />‘Remember me’ you said, leaving. <br /> <br />I waited, oh god how I waited. I remembered, you?<br /><br />Christoffer Rousseau<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-cry-to-me/
