Kelly My Daughter

Know that you have lost your mind, Eyes so open, yet so blind, Listen to your mother, dear, Life will treat you rough, I fear. You have chosen such a path, Might you suffer Karmic wrath, Yet you're blind to your own fate, Don't you see your huge mistake? Alas, my heartbreak is so strong, Understand, I did you wrong, God forgive me for this sin, Hope is lost, the dread begins, Try to understand your thinking, Even though it's due to drinking, Roses dying in my hand, lifetime shifting like the sand. ©Danielle White

To see your own child travel down a dark path is a helpless and devastating feeling. Sadly, sometimes it is the only path to the light. I'm sorry. Hope things turn around for the better for her soon. Danielle, your blog, not sure if it is just my computer, but I am not able to see any picture. Thought you might want to know. Love, Shar

Danielle, as a parent I could feel what you feel. The best thing we could do for our children is to offer them a prayer to God for their peace and tranqility. I like your poem. Ernilando
