Debbie Middaugh Poet Rhyme

One More Time

She took her child.
 and ran into the night,
     I searched for them,
 they were nowhere in sight.

    My world shattered,
 I don’t know what to do,
    I’m not missing just one,
 but there is two.

    I have spent ten years,
 taking care of the child,
   Cast out of his life,
 I was Exiled.

    I miss his laughter,
 his voice and the looks on his face,
    With the two of them gone,
 I feel so out of place.

   Getting over her,
 was not easy it was tough,
   He was a blessing,
 a Diamond in the rough.

     It’s been over a year,
 and they tell me he is tall,
     My hands are tied,
 my backs against the wall.

      I thought,
 I would see him grow up become an adult,
     A fine young man,
 my input a direct result.

       I love him,
 as if he were mine,
  I would give my life,
 to see him just ONE MORE TIME….
