Three in One Year
One at A Time
Gave in to the Fear
Darkness Despair
Consumed Them
Lost to all that Care
A fourth Tried
Will and Heart Broken
Still Alive?
Tasked to lead
Supposed to protect
Didn't meet their need
How could you not SEE
All the signs--Clear as MUD
Why isn't my Child my Husband my Father HOME with me
How did I fail
Heart full of Regret
Now how can I prevail
Waiting for dawn
As I lay in the dark
My demons they spawn
Thoughts in my mind
Feel the pieces falling away
Some reason I must find
Dawn finally does Break
My alarm sounding todays reprieve
My life I did not forsake
As I put away my Sin
I get ready for the Day
I must remember to put on my Grin.
