Ok I finally got the audio uploaded woohoo! I had to trim the first couple minutes to make it fit. Entered into Tom Woody's Audio contest
Listen to poem:
Baby, I


When your heart is broken in two
When your sad and alone
When the hurt feels brand new
You can't stitch up a stone
Baby,I….feel you.

When you look at your reflection
Nothing seems alright
When your so full of rejection
Your skins feels too damn tight
Baby,I…see you

When you scream silently
No one's worth your trust
When you swear it can't be done
You will never love
Baby, I …hear you

Refrain
Baby I... baby I.... baby, baby I... baby, I love you. 

Bridge:
I may not make it okay
I can't take it all away
But I'll always be your friend
When you don't know who
Will be there for you
Baby,I Am.

After everything explodes
And you look around
When all the violence and noise 
Make no more sound
You wonder who will be there still
Baby, I ..will

You imagine they all
Say your crazy
You think you might be
 Oh, Maybe
You think  they all Say things untrue
Things that hurt to the bone
Baby, I …won't

When you think your alone
That no one cares
No message on your phone
 nothing you want to share
 you wonder who really loves you
Baby, I do.

Refrain
Baby I... baby I.... baby, baby I... baby, I love you.

Lol thanks! Ukulele actually... I've been teaching myself to play since all the quarantines with Covid. Had all that time, thought I'd do something I always wanted to do.

That's a moving song to your daughter Chrystol. I really like your lyric poems. I wish I knew about music, so I could write lyrics. I know how to play one instrument - the record player.

I appreciate that! It's my go to when I write because I hear most of my writing musically. I play ukulele but not proficiently. Thank you for taking the time to comment!

Dear Crystal, your heartfelt song for your daughter is a beacon of love and understanding. Through each verse, you offer comfort and reassurance, acknowledging her pain and standing by her side. I love how your words are filled with empathy and strength, reminding her she is never alone. You may not have all the answers as a mother, but your unwavering support and unconditional love shine through. Your daughter is blessed to have you as her guiding light, offering solace in the darkest of times. - Blessings, Daniel
