Cracked Children

It happened so young They were just having fun When she touched there With tender loving care ...ok He would come in at night To tuck them in tight But with a tiny little crack She became aware of the sack ...ow! Always lingering on the line That something important was left behind He trudged through life Avoiding the commitment to his wife ...oh? She was so angry all the time With dialogues racing in her mind The gate was barred long ago When she found a secret that no one WANTED to know ...so!!!???!!!! Age does funny things to living Attracting all the gunk that was givin' Moments become pools of sorrow Eventually, there will be no tomorrow ...go! .....................for Pity's Sake, will you go away! Hope was offered along the way Great gives of joy, found no place to stay Suffering became the walls of a home Where waste and want wrote....ALONE!!!! ....and they believed. Written by Trudy Schrader on 01-28-2019 Note: I believe LOVE is the most powerful force in the universe, and there is nothing or no one beyond the touch of LOVE; however, when NO! is the response of the soul, there is nothing you can do, but release, and let them go.
