Justice
Amy M Kennedy

***Amy's Note*** not my usual style...but i had to get this out in the open!

How dare you treat your own child this way
Aren't you ashamed of what you do?
Do you get pleasure out of hurting others
Is this what occurs when others don't listen to you?

You claim that our love is sin
And that we'll be punished on Judgement Day
Will you fight at all costs to win?
Just remember what goes around comes around
Yes...everything you do and say

You go to Church and pray to the Lord above
However, truth be known
You have no conception of real love
You sit in judgement, and put the blame on me
Putting your weakness on others, so you feel free

Well justice will be served
You can count on that
And the hands of time are on our side
Just a simple known fact

So if you must, continue this charade
But when the play is over and you are all alone
You will realize it was you who was played
Or is your heart made of stone?

Tears after tears your daughter cries
You act like she is a country you rule
Her heart now  hangs heavy, she no longer tries
But in the end, it will be you who was the fool

Amy, Such an anxious, angry, prickly poem.

Amy,
You have every right to be upset. And you should be proud of the effort you showed here to point out that you care so much. My warmest and sincere embrace to you.

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love
(Daniel J D)
