Hands Are Shaking

My hands 
are 
shaking
I 
love you 
unconditionally 
Why?
Because
 my 
babies
You are
the world
 to me
Beloved 
 because
I know
no bounds
Such a 
sweething
Your 
being
my sweet 
ecstasy 
I held
 you
in 
my arms
at 
your
conception 
Looking
deeply 
into
the eyes
of your 
beginning 
Hoping 
beyond
all 
reason
for your
release
and 
believing 
 by
looking 
for the
beauty
I had to
recover 
in being
 your 
Mom
It was
so
overwhelming
But
I  did 
the best
 I could
under
the
circumstances 
Giving
you hugs
and kisses
And waiting
for the day
Walking in
loving ways
You would
remember 
that we had
these
brighter days
before there
was Hell
to pay
Please 
my babies
hold on
to those
brighter days
before
your
father called
on his
sick pay
and left us
standing
in his
sociopath ways
He'll  get his
DAY
The time 
I  call
HELL DAY
WITH PAY

Thank you WW. Writing the pain is very hard times. But in the end I have hope in a mother's love that will never end and I will embrace my children again. God bless you My friend. AMEN.
