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.

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.
