Forgotten Parent

It has come to a time….
It has come to a stage….
Of how easy we can forget a parent!
Is it me or is it the world.

Every time a song is sang….
Every time a tear drop is lost…
It seems we have forgotten a parent…
Is it me or is it the world???

It has come to a time…
When a song is sang…
I remember you in my heart.
I have not forgotten you,
You are the only father I got.

It seems many people escape…
It seems many people don’t need to talk…
Well I do…
I thank you for everything;
This life, this lesson, this vision

I am a young man,
Having a vision to be man like you,
This is a story of an African parent
The forgotten parent…
But you will never be forgotten in my heart.
