Trusting His Parents
He told his folks his plans
Knowing they would always love him
Trusting them
But they threw him out
Turned on him
He had to live with strangers
They had their rules, their regs
Their fundamental religion
That no longer encouraged them to love their only child
He never recovered
And they never opened their hearts
Preferring dogma over their son’s feelings and their own.
