Losing Hope

Silent ringing in my ear Side effects of my career Holding hands with delicate flowers Sharing joy with children for hours Cleaning constant messes Watching little girls in beautiful dresses Never resting never sleeping My inner alarm always beeping Adding money, paying taxes Sending business faxes Try to soften the hard blow that the children come to know Moneys getting tighter Always trying to be a fighter Crying constant from the loss Living off of Red Cross Never seeing little girls off in another womens world
