I Did No Wrong

I really don't understand why they took my children from me. Why is this happening and what did I do wrong? All I wanted to see, was my children grow up big and strong. No help from a near, and no help from afar. So I looked to the skies, for help from the stars. I still do not understand what I did was so wrong. What did I do to deserve this? How do I get them out of this mess? They threw me in jail, And there is where I sit. That is when god told me never to quit. And not really knowing what I did wrong. I asked the courts don't butcher my children And let the parents decide. How can I hold back, the death sentence that they hide. I pleaded with them to give them back And asked god why are they the way they are? My spirit and my will to fight are very strong. How can the courts let this go on so long? They have taken them away because they said I am bad. But the only thing that they're doing, is making everyone very sad. What did I do that was so very wrong? If you look at the big picture for all to see, There must be a reason, for that I am not sure. When I did no wrong how can they take my children for me? Copy write 4-1-2009 Harold Therault
