Pws

PWS
I hate you so much
You've taken my son hostage 
and won't let go.
I fight for him everyday that I know.
There are days that seem better and I feel aglow 
The sunshine seems so bright on those days you know.
I feel that nothing will get in our way
then within a second you're back
taking my son back into your claws
never once giving him pause.
I hope and I pray for a cure somehow
so that the world wouldn't know PWS like it's now.
Your games of hunger and such
holding my son so tight in your clutch.
I want to live just one day without fear
but, you can't even give me this I hear.
You are horrible, hateful, and mean.
You sink your claws so deep into his skin.
I fear you will never let go.
I have learned to take you one step at a time
I've learned to go with your ebb and flow.
You are not welcome here
I want you to go.
Give my child some peace 
let him not think of food for a day.
this is what I pray.
So, PWS you are not welcome here.
JUST GO.
