Our Children
Why do our children feel it's right to leave before us
It's just wrong no matter what the cause
Our hearts as parents break each time
As we think, thank God this one is not mine
Can we get them to understand
to reach for our outstretched hand
It's not something to be afraid of
It is only offered out of love
For every one that takes their life
Behind they leave us pain and strife
The hurt that last for years and years
We remember them with hearts and tears
So why they choose to leave us now
We could have stopped this, but how?
I guess that's something we'll never know
Our children please! learn and grow
Dedicated to all our lost children
from a loving mother xx
