Come back

What can I do, what can I say, anything to help take the pain away. 

Feeling so helpless, I brought you into this world, but can not save you, 

I say goodbye every night, with hope your still alive when I wake,

I know you're fighting, every minute, every hour, every day,

But you are not alone, just pick up the phone, lean on me, even fight with me,

Just don't say, there is no other way, I just want you to be okay, I just want you to stay.

I pray for release from these demons, I pray for you to find happiness, and for peace within, this inner war we can win.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
