forgiven.

i always told myself i didn't wanna be like you.
but the older i get i see your point of view.

pains me to believe in the things you never taught me.
and now that you're lost somewhere in a dream.
i can only remember and forgive all the times you've failed.
unable to just let things be for us boys have been derailed.
back together because times heals the heart wanting family.
yet having you here will finalize me complete, happily.
yet i stand for what you never took the time to say.
i have become a man without you pulling me apart every other day.
a friend you forgot how to be has been forgiven.
i just wish you were in the flesh alive and living.
