I gave you life, I gave you love, I gave it my all....but it wasn't enough. You succumbed to your demons, but I never gave up


I held onto you tight by the very last thread
so that my boy didn't end up dead

I endured the deepest pain while you were sticking a needle in your vein. It drove me to the edge and nearly insane

Now you shut me out and run away, and I'm left not knowing what to say. I just pray that you are ok

We are supposed to love not hate. I never would have thought this would be our fate

I pray that someday it will...
