A Crude Visit

A Crude Visit (Rubiyat) Standing out front with shopping cart Disrespecting mother not smart Telling her that she is now dead Words piercing deep breaking her heart To him I’m just a “seed donor” Yet he’s acting like a stoner Throwing out abuse from his mouth I’m feeling now like a mourner Oh my heart’s been broken in two Now what am I supposed to do It’s so hard to explain this pain I know the Lord will pull me through Tougher skin needed on this bone Although at times I feel alone Trick of the enemy I know I do know all hope is not gone I pray for strength along the way That He would guide me day by day Trying so hard to understand Right now all I can do is pray
