You coud cut the
  distance then
Between us, and now
   you come when
I have left the living
   years of times ago,
Together we had shared
   no tomorrow,
Only too many todays,
Oh, our ****** father
   and his ways!
So much lost in the rain,
We now shake over in
   pain!
A world of give, and no
   receive!
In silence we look, in
     sacrifise conceive--
Loved faces are gone,
Here, new ones in our
   ways!
