Missing
My son is missing!
No one has seen or heard from him
in 5 days!
Yes, he has his struggles
but how is this reality?
Talking to the police,
physically searching for him,
making sure everyone knows
to look out for him,
I am doing the things suggested
but no one tells me how
to survive this
how to take breaths in and out
and put one foot in front of the other
I know I am being held up by my prayers
and the prayers said for us, and that
the arms of God carry me
as I search and wait
for the piece of my heart that my son carries
to be found.
