the candle I light for you

this candle is not
from a barely known friend

it is not from a son to his father

but from the father for his son
to light the home of darkness
wherein the son was left behind

and in this gesture ...
let me act but once
in his stead



for a friend and his father.

A man would try to walk in his father's footsteps

It could be that, a woman, in her mother's

our fathers might have tried to try both

as would too, our mothers

therefore we walk the path of our ancestors

and thus they will go ahead of us

always guiding

though time would heal old wounds do not fear of letting go of your father

it will never mean loving him less only favoring what life dictates

that is, for us to keep taking their steps further and onward
