He's Lost

There, I saw him.
There, I watched him go.
Into the abyss of hell,
I prayed my tears wouldn't show.

I covered my eyes, I plugged my ears,
For, he was about to discover the root, of all my fears...
He was sure to find that mans face in the darkness. That horrid, horrid, man.
I suppose I've thought about hitting him, with a large frying pan.

It wouldn't hurt that bad, just enough to make him yell.
Enough to make him fall, down, to my deepest hell.

I loved and trusted that man with all I had.
I guess that's what you get for loving so bad.

The man was my father, who abused and hurt me so,
He hurt me so, to where it haunted me wherever I go.

But my love, who decided to fight my fears, now has no choice but to be lost in tears.

He climbed down to the deepest part of the abyss of hell.
I know, for I heard him scream as he fell.

He is no forever lost,
and at what cost?
At the cost of loving me enough to die.
Loving me enough, to make me cry.

For now...he is lost.
For now...he is gone.
For now...I miss him more than ever.
Because now...he's lost.


The author's comments:
as a child, my father would abuse me, and when i finally had enough courage to trust another man, he went off, and said if my father ever came back, he'd kill him. He got lost in his own mind of hatred towards my father, that he then killed himself, because no one could find my father. he went mad...and now he's forever lost.
