1 WOMAN WONDER

im sittin here a 1 woman wonder
wondering just where my place is in this timeless life
i get a call from a stranger who will either save me or make me recall my fathers hands- his hate- his rejection
he tells me his name- i hold him- so rapidly my emotion grows
because i know just how its been to be an offspring- that mommy n daddy never wanted to grow
we cant stop this- a gift wrapped inside the wind
his tiny smile- open eyes - the way he grasped my hand
in that moment he gave me a commpassion- for him where i would never allow pain to intrude
maybe niether of us will ever reach the stars- but we can do our best to get him there
lets set the entire world at rest- in his name!
"ive been a 1 woman circus my entire life
ive dated cochroachs- i washed my soul
but i always promised myself- that if i ever had a kid
they wouldnt grow the way i did
im just 1 woman
standing by your side 100%"
pain has given me a gift- n today im proud to call my dad - dad
hes given me good direction- a road home
where that leads- i hope its not papers n wispers that are the only sound
ive grown- ill grow more- gifts dont come often - not 4 life- not 4 life
i promise i will never walk away

Nice dig. This shows a lot of feelings that are shared by many, similar to some of my own. 10 from me.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
