IF ONLY I COULD
If only I could
In this scary darkness
There lurks an evil soul
Out to harm the youngest
Making them suffer is the goal
I've tried my best to make it stop
With calls and even stepping in
But he'd always avoid the cops
thinking that only he could win
Sometimes is seems good can't win
That only evil will prevail.
That punishment won't come to him
but his dirty deed I'll unvail.
If only I could find a way to win
and be able to break this child free
So he'd never be able to do it again.
but alas it seems there is no way for me
There lurks an evil soul
Out to harm the youngest
Making them suffer is the goal
I've tried my best to make it stop
With calls and even stepping in
But he'd always avoid the cops
thinking that only he could win
Sometimes is seems good can't win
That only evil will prevail.
That punishment won't come to him
but his dirty deed I'll unvail.
If only I could find a way to win
and be able to break this child free
So he'd never be able to do it again.
but alas it seems there is no way for me

I'm a wife and mother of 2 grown kids. I have 6 cats, Mostly females. I write a lot of poetry and have 2 novels ready to publish. I use both my birth name and my married name for writing and facebook to separate me from others that have the same names. I live with a lot of health issues. I worked till 2012 before things increased. in the way of issues. so now I volunteer in 3 places and do housework and writing the rest of the time. There is a lot more to me than just this little bit.
