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
