For Heaven Sake
Written by: Wilfred Mellers, Wednesday, January 5,2011 @ 6: 05 PM

Sometimes I sit back and ponder.
For those who don't understand, it is that I wonder.
Is it worth it all?
For the father I now call.

Why can't I make you understand?
I am so tired of being your kickstand.
At this rate, we shall disband.
Our ship sails are now unmanned.

All I do is for you and you give me so much grief.
From this type of stress, I need some relief.
In me, you never had any belief.
So go ahead and be the chief.

The constant badgering seems to be a Motif.
You treat me like your personal handkerchief.
After every conversation with you, I must debrief.
Floating now in the wind like a Greenleaf.

I am tired of everything you must inspect.
For me, you've lost all respect.
From me what do you expect?
I am always the criminal and the first suspect.

Your woes and worries on me you project.
I am neither a clown nor am I a reject.
I am just a man and I'm far from perfect.
When I am gone take some time to reflect.

The things you do will follow you.
Insanity, profanity, you've got haven't a clue.
Jealousy is the pot of stew that you brew.
Respect for my consciousness is long overdue.

Sometimes, I sit and wonder about it all.
So quick the mighty shall always fall.
How huge, but yet so puny and small.
Before you walk, you must learn to crawl.

Humble yourself, for I have done you no wrong.
For disagreements, you like to prolong.
So weak from once so strong.
It seems like you and I won't ever get along.
