In My Grandson's Eyes

In My Grandson’s Eyes I see his pain & watch the tears flow down his little face “Mommy I don’t want to go” he pleads with all his might “But Daddy’s waiting for you & it will be alright” Against his will he goes but not without a struggle A 5 year old shouldn’t have to deal with all this kind of trouble. His father made him homeless & took everything from his Mom Yet this poor child is expected to act as if nothing ever went wrong. His Father lives a life of deceit where he believes his own lies But the one who suffers can be seen in my grandson’s eyes.
