Daniel's Song

Daniel’s Song
Tears shed for
A life cut short
A beautiful child
Who was loved
By
Many
But
Confusion set in
And pain reigned long
We loved you in spite
When hope seemed lost
You were stilled loved
[This poem is dedicated to those suffering from Opiate addiction and their friends and families]

You wrote a very poignant poem here, and one I can relate to, not from personal experience, but in my very close circle of family and friends. I wish you strength. Thank you for writing it. Only, this is not ABC, that comes with a very different set of rules. This is Free Verse. Welcome to PoetrySoup :)
