Poem Title:
Poem
It a day like any other We were sharing time as a family My two girls and my son My husband and I laughed at his jokes We ate till we were stuffed Played games like crazy Then I tucked them into bed I tucked in my son last He looked at me and said “I love you mommy” I go to bed and I wake to my daughter’s screams As I go check on them, I see that my son is not in bed His bed sheets are scattered on the floor I run outside but there is nothing but silence I dial 911 Police arrive 20 minutes after my call Say to wait 24 hours and call them again if he hasn’t appeared The next day I waited by the door Hours pass but I don’t see my boy I call the police and they issue an amber alert They tell me to wait and not worry Wait and not worry?! I have broken heart because a soulless person has taken my son I have two daughters crying because their younger brother is gone from their lives I have a husband who is desperately looking for his son and won’t stop until he is found My son is gone! Look at this picture, look at it! This is my son He is the kindest person you could ever meet He has done nothing to anyone There is a family crying because he has been kidnapped And the person responsible is out loose and you do nothing but to tell me to not worry and wait God, you should have taken me instead not him When will my boy be found? When will he jump into my arms? When will I able to tuck him into bed again? When will I hear him say “Mommy I love you “? Touch his face and and say “ I love you too son” But until then, I will look for him Pouring my heart and devotion into hoping that one day, he will return But when?
