Stable Ground
I am really stressed,
I don't know what to do
With my delinquent Sean;
It makes me regret coming
To seek a livelihood
Leaving my boys behind.
Let us work things out,
God will give us wherewithal
To find our own place to stay,
Challenges can and will be ironed out,
As long as seek united solutions.
It's just that motherly instinct
Rips me apart to anxiety depths.
This stinking place,
Ain't the place for aces like us;
I can see what caused you to flee,
I see it everyday,
The smiling leopard has not
Changed its spots, it only casts
Smiling dyes,
Little does she know
We are on stable ground!
