Wandering Further Into Dispair

In slow motion 
but without the ability 
To stop the events
About to envelope me
If I had took a moment 
And stepped away
been an onlooker of 
My most life destroying day
I may of seen it coming
I may of prepared
I may of left the country 
With my children 
No one herd
Run into the night 
Like a murder
Helicopters circling 
In the air
My mum let me know 
I was on the police
Web site
Ports alerted 
No where to go
Arested and put in a cell
Nearly took m life
No one interviewed me
They didn't know my name
They still took my daughter 
Into foster care she was put
Now a year later
Can't function 
Cry every twenty minutes 
Can cope
Can win
As the said
We're the biggest corporation in the U.K.
How are u going to fight us
