PERDON (I'm sorry)
For thinking it was your fault that I had a tangle-up tongue that asphyxiated my words killing them slowly with stuttering grunts. PERDON because in the reclusive hush I learned to organize my thoughts writing down my feelings when I couldn't talk and it was in that silence that I found my voice.. For the day I asked where were you when I got hurt? when I was weak and my enemy strong when my childhood ended when I was still too young PERDON because you put the strength inside of my soul to get back on my feet in spite of being hurt and someday help myself and those that can't carry the cross.. For the day when I cursed my luck at living in the misery of a country of the third world raised between poverty, disease and war PERDON because it was there that I learned the benefits of hard work learning that honesty, health and love have much more value than precious gold.. For the day I turned my back at you and refused to pray when life went wrong and I lost my faith I took my leave and became astray PERDON Because you always have keep me safe even as I stormed off and walked away you guided my steps to where I am today. PERDON for my ego and my vanity fueled by my childishness and stupidity PERDON for my rage and obstinacy sustained by my fear and incompetency PERDON that it took me so long to understand that GOD you work in mysterious ways.
