I Had Two Sons....... Poem by Marco Bueninck

I Had Two Sons.......



born out of love.
They chose me as their house
where they felt safe.
Gave me trust, forever,
building their lives with me.
Allowed me access to their souls
so that I could show their path.
Gave me confidence to teach them
how to find their life.
I tried to gave them the wisdom
so that they can pass this on.
I made what they are now.
With trust, they followed me.
I let the sun shine for them
so that grief, pain would disappear.
Confidence and strength, the course
on which their life sails now.
Love, the key to their existence
with which, they can now move on.

I have two sons.......

now reward me with sadness.
I destroyed their confidence
to build on my wisdom.
Crude, they awoke from their dream
and came in a wild stream.
Could no longer discern shore
and continued to run in endless circles.
Sadness, anger, now their thread
along which goes their lives.
Hatred, misunderstanding, no quest
is what now wanders through their soul.
Without defense they declared war
and made me an outcast, and yet.....
deep in their hearts, there is light
what lightens their.
That light, now still lost in rage,
wandering without purpose.
I can no longer give them guidance.
Since I was the one brought them pain.
What leads them now is: dark power!
bringing them more tears and sorrow.
Powerless, I try to reach them
and reach out with endless love.
But they are now so full of hate
where love no longer exists.

Oh God, make them see the sun again.
Free them from this unbearable pain.
So love may be in their heart.
Let them experienced my love again.
Let the anger, the hate in them, calm.
Give them the strength to forgive.
Let hem live in peace.
