Jennifer Ray Poem
There is emptiness in my heart, I want to be loved unconditionally and true,
There is no one to hold me or always be here...
A child of my own will ease my fears, I let myself say...
A love of my own flesh and blood, a baby of my very own, one who will love me
No matter what and will be with me always...
Now this life is growing in my young womb,
I am only sixteen and reality has set in....
So many questions I never had before, worries on my mind more and more.
I am so all alone, how could this be?
Where is the father of my child to be?
No money or home for my child and I to go...
I am sad and scared and no one evens knows...
I am his mother, the only way for him to survive,
Now that it's too late I ask myself why?
A child myself, I break down and cry.
I was naive and selfish and too young to understand.
My freedom has been stripped from me and my future is gone,
My baby and I have nothing to rely on...
So I strive to provide all that he needs as I go without so my baby can eat.
I am forced to grow up, my hopes and dreams disappeared, my childhood is only
a memory, I fear...
The love for my child is more than words can say and strong until the end...
But I miss my inner-child, my hopes and dreams, my youth and me...
My only best friend.

Jennifer Ray Poem
Each blessed morning when I awake,
I take a moment to say my thanks,
To the good Lord up above for all the blessings He gave.
Our life he has blessed with the most precious gifts...
The most beautiful gift of all, five children to raise and love.
Each child, unique and special in their own way,
In their eyes are the window to their souls,
Vibrant, full of life and so innocent and pure.
It is such a miracle, their existence is my only cure.
Each blessed day that goes by,
They grow up more and make us so proud
With their kindness and love they have in their hearts.
I am so grateful, The Lord, has given us another blessing...
Another beautiful blessed day to wake up to and start.
