why do angels suffer?

why do angels have to suffer?

why do they have to shed tears?

why do they have to feel the pain?

why does my little angel have to cry?

why does my little nephew have to

endure all of the sorrow and regrets

caused by his parents' mistakes.

your father left you at a tender age,

your mother have to work harder,

and we have to play with you

just for you to enjoy your days.

i can't stand the anger inside of me

every time you let a tear roll by

because of the hardships you're going through,

i felt the remorse whenever i fall short

and was not able to guide you properly.

yes, i am not your father,

but you're still from my bloodline,

and i will not forgive those who will hurt you

for i will bring forth disaster to them.

my prayer for you my little angel,

that God will not take His eyes off you,

hoping for a better tomorrow,

and you'll enjoy your time more than i do.
