Oh,
the
weight
of
the
years
is
heavy
on
my
chest
Watching
the
shadows
lengthen
as
the
sun
sets
in
the
west
I
failed
you,
my
blood,
I
failed
you
in
the
light
And
now
I’
m
standing
here
alone
in
the
quiet
of
the
night
George
Mulumba,
I
call
your
name
into
the
wind
Cynthia
and
Moses,
where
do
I
begin?
Astridah,
my
child,
I
know
I
wasn't
there
To
hold
your
hand,
to
show
you
that
I
care
I
missed
the
birthdays
and
the
struggles
you
have
known
I
left
you
walking
through
this
world
all
on
your
own
My
heart
is
aching
with
a
guilt
that
never
dies
I
see
the
disappointment
mirrored
in
your
eyes
I’
m
not
asking
for
your
silver,
I’
m
not
asking
for
your
gold
I’
m
just
a
father
shivering
out
here
in
the
cold
Oh,
have
mercy,
my
children,
let
your
hearts
be
kind
I
just
want
to
hear
a
word,
a
peace
of
mind
Tell
me
how
you
are,
that’
s
all
I
truly
need
A
simple
conversation
to
help
this
spirit
bleed
I
know
the
bridges
burned
are
hard
for
you
to
cross
And
I’
m
the
one
who
tallied
up
the
total
of
our
loss
I
was
blinded
by
the
pride,
I
was
lost
within
the
haze
While
you
were
growing
up
through
all
those
lonely
days
There
are
so
many
others
that
I
failed
to
guide
I
have
no
more
excuses,
I
have
nowhere
left
to
hide
My
door
is
always
open,
even
if
it’
s
just
a
dream
I
hope
that
you
can
find
a
way
to
let
go
of
the
steam
I’
m
not
asking
for
your
silver,
I’
m
not
asking
for
your
gold
I’
m
just
a
father
shivering
out
here
in
the
cold
Oh,
have
mercy,
my
children,
let
your
hearts
be
kind
I
just
want
to
hear
a
word,
a
peace
of
mind
Tell
me
how
you
are,
that’
s
all
I
truly
need
A
simple
conversation
to
help
this
spirit
bleed
I
don't
need
your
support,
I
don't
need
your
hand
to
hold
I
just
need
to
know
the
stories
that
you
haven't
told
If
you
find
the
room
inside
your
heart
to
speak
to
me
I’
ll
listen
to
the
truth,
however
much
it
stings
to
see
Victor
Kabila
Mulumba
is
the
name
you
carry
too
I
am
the
root
that
withered,
but
I
still
believe
in
you
If
you
can
send
a
message,
just
to
say
you're
doing
well
It
would
be
the
only
story
that
I
have
to
tell
I
love
you
all,
deeper
than
the
deepest
river
bed
I
live
with
all
the
tears
that
I
have
often
shed
I’
m
not
asking
for
your
silver,
I’
m
not
asking
for
your
gold
I’
m
just
a
father
shivering
out
here
in
the
cold
Oh,
have
mercy,
my
children,
let
your
hearts
be
kind
I
just
want
to
hear
a
word,
a
peace
of
mind
Tell
me
how
you
are,
that’
s
all
I
truly
need
A
simple
conversation
to
help
this
spirit
bleed
Just
a
word,
my
children
Just
to
know
you’
re
there
George,
Cynthia,
Moses,
Astridah
I’
m
listening
to
the
wind
I
love
you
all (
