I wandered the roads of darkness turned heart into stone. I've taken every hit with pride only to stumble through life alone. Wakeing to the sound of fighting beer bottles that hollow the air. Tis but one prayer I know one that GOD restrained to bear. Recaling the days of make believe to excape the tragedy. Running from this place called home to somewhere far and free. Once I was gone I never looked back never did I miss the misery. No loveing arms to hold me tight noone there takeing care of me. My pillow soaked in tears my bedroom door locked with the key Praying only for that one day..that one day to be free. |

this is exceptional and touching... your honesty and pain moves me. yes, days of make believe...I understand. thank you for your very kind reply to me on my poem as well, take care jm Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders And it makes me want to touch you there. And the light in your eyes makes me feel Like there's something much better out there Something kind... And I know someday I might be looking around Trying to find some purpose Well purpose it can't be that hard to find As long as I've got the wind... The wind and your love to carry me. vertical horizon |

Thank you all for your kind replies. This is a very serious subject and one that I hope we all think of on an ongoing basis. I see my little ones and to think of anything ever happening to them just give me chills. Patty |
