A Fathers Love Do Not Let Go

I wore my sins like I didn’t care, Drank my nights While my faith ran thin. I broke the vows I swore I’d keep, Now I pay for it when the house Won’t sleep. God knows the weight I carry alone, Some scars don’t show, But they own your bones. I’m still waitin’ on my son to come home, Still talkin’ to God when I’m alone. Hair turnin’ gray, heart beatin’ slow, But a father’s love don’t let go. I’ll be right here, Right or wrong. Still waitin’ son, Still holdin’ on. I Taught you how to pray, Not how to Run. Now every night, I pray you’re not done. I don’t need excuses, Don’t need truth. Just need your voice sayin’, “Dad, it’s you.” Time keeps takin’ more than it gives, But hope’s the last thing A father Leaves. I’m still waitin’ on my son to come home, Still leavin’ that light on when I’m broke. If God brings you back, I won’t ask why. I thank Him with these tired eyes. Till my last breath, Till I’m gone. Still waitin’ son, Still holdin’ on.
