Help Him

Girl prays before she goes to bed everynight:

"Lord please take care of my dad. 
Keep him in your arms 
Make his heart new and warm. 
Take away his pain dear GOD
And help me forgive him..
Let him see there is more to life 
Then the death he is putting in his body
Help and protect him Lord
And I'll give you
My everything..."



**This girl that prays every night is...
Me
I pray that he go get help
And I know he is not gonna get clean unless he 
Want to, so
I'll continue to pray....**

The sad part is that we can't make the decision to quit. It's got to come from him. I pray for my son but he has to decide. All we can do is pray and hope. Vince

hey i really enjoy you style of writting. ive read pretty much all of your poems and i think you've got serious talent. and one thing about life is its always spontaneous . Well for me anyway, you always gotta remember its not an easy road and you gota keep on keeping on no matter what. you have to always have hope, never loose hope never. -love and peace James Faulkner (email me if you ever need to talk- [email protected] )
