Keep Your Chin Up

I have such high hopes; For you in this world! I guess you can't see; You're tucked up and curled; In a safe, secure place; Away from what's real. With all of your needs met; You don't miss a meal! COOL as can be; Caught up in 'this life'. It seems you can't see; What's real and what's right. Let GOD help you; Just search in your heart. To help find new ways; And to make a fresh start! To My 14yr old son, I LOVE YOU!!!
