We sit in silence To afraid to say what’s really going on… I listen to the radio…I think How dare they sing Don’t they know? Can’t they see… He is here with me The man driving this vessel We get almost home Mom looks away, The car pulls over He says get out You’re not fit Walk As I walk I wonder Is this my fate? Tonight as I get ready for bed I know it will happen… I will awake with a start Every night I jump… As I feel a tug on my blanket At the ripe old age of 8 I will see what is meant to be "Happiness is a state of your own mind!" |

Thank you for your kind words! Some time ago I was told that I wasn't good enough. Now as an adult, I am realizing (with help) that I am worthy. So thank you! "Happiness is a state of your own mind!" |
