Can't We Try?

Can't We Try?

You see, father.
It's been so long since we got along.
I just thought..
That just maybe we could try again.
It's been so long.
Way too long, Father.

I can't seem to go on.
Not without you in my life.
I just seem lonely,
Oh so empty inside; tired and weak.
It's getting too rough.
Too rough to move on.

You see, Father.
My life has changed just a wee bit.
No miracles at all..
Though, that's what I wish for.
I need you back.
I really need you back, Father.

I can't seem to get up.
Up from this horrible rut.
My anger is..
It's out of control, too hard to maintain.
I miss you so badly.
And, I can't get up.

You see, Father.
Though it's been this long..
I think it's worth it.
Worth it to give it another try.
Can't We Try?
Oh, can't we try father?

Just one more chance,
That's all either need.
Just one more time..
That's all I ask.
For, without you in my life..
It's getting to rough.

One more chance?
That's all I ask..
Can't we try?

    Very nice poem. Though I do not think it qualifies as a dark poem. Other then that it is a great poem and it is just fine the way it is. Another 5/5.

    This poem was really good. loved the show of raw emtion, and simple passion. the flow is alittle off, but it didn't damage the effect of the poem. Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing.

    I enjoyed the feeling behind this poem. Any poem written with passion and emotion is worth reading. The rhythm and flow of the poem, however, was less than brilliant. It seemed jumpy and forced at times while at others the words trasitioned smoothly together. All in all 4/5.
