A Friend of the Family

I’d like to say I knew him well, the man who stole my mind
I thought he was a hero once, the dream had been contrived
The kindnesses he lavished on the one who never had
The nurturing that faded with the appearance of his hand

The warm touch of his calloused skin brings shivers to me still
Enveloping the wonderings, my heart does want to fill
There is an empty place in me that use to hold him there
The man who said he needed me and held me in his care

An empty place that use to hold the evil of his sin
is waiting now for healing and a new place to begin
I used to think that my mind was lost, that it did depart,
but now I know the truth for sure, he also stole my heart
