Knowing the Truth

I watched the sunshine, fade from your days, as something so secret, was stealing you away. Uneducated, and clueless, I brushed it aside, not realizing, you could have died. Friends are amazing, they see what we hide, then gently confront, with tears in their eyes. Knowing the truth, was the first big step, I had to admit it, before you could be helped. The struggle was hard, weeks turned into months, and for days you disappeared, without calling once. Then one day, God answered my prayers, performing a miracle, with you in His care. The love of our Father, is always here, but sometimes we are blinded, by unknown fears.

Christy it always seems when we think we've reached the bottom, that's when it seems God extends his hand and sets us back on our feet. I pray all is gong well with you and your son. You are welcome for the comments, I love reading your poetry, Ron
