Without You

I’m not ok
A week has come and gone
You are still  not here with me
Waiting for the court to say you can come home to me
Afraid you are that mommy will forget you, but how could I
So precious to me you are my son
Oceans I have cried since they took you away from me
They say that I hurt you, I hurt you badly
But it wasn’t me, 
I couldn’t do  what they say I’ve don
My world you have been for over the past Eleven years
Holding you, reassuring you that  no mater what comes I’ll be their for you
Doctors told me years a go that you would always be special
You were different, respiratory problems such as asthma,  and allergies you would have
Sesser’s to, and learning would not be easy ether for you
I just smiled and said that’s ok I’m his mommy and we’ll be fine
I’ll care for him don’t you worry for can’t you see he’s my little man
Loving, holding, caring, and protecting  you that is all I know to do
So wile your away, till you come home to me, and for eternity
 these things I will do for this is all I know to do


This I write for my little man Wain, I know God will bring you home where you belong with 
me and the rest of  your family. We love and miss you  Wain!!!!

Hi Caroline, this is a poem bleeding with emotions. It touches the inner most of the heart -reflecting your anguish and pain. I am sure your little man will come back. I pray that it happens soon. -Mohammad
