~HER PARENT'S LOSS~A Poem by Jillian AlexisThis is a poem I wrote for a loved one, who experienced this horrific pain as a Child.
Previous Version This is a previous version of ~HER PARENT'S LOSS~. “When’s Mommy coming home”, the Child asks her Dad; He wasn't much of a Parent, but he was all that she had. He squeezes her small hand, “She’s never coming back; She doesn’t love you anymore, because you’ve been so bad”! Her lip's begin to quiver, as her eye’s fill up with tears; She looks down at the Sidewalk, her heart consumed with fear. She jerks away from her Daddy, and runs as fast as she can; This is too much for a little girl, to possibly understand. ~ When she reaches her run-down house, there's a car parked in the street; A strange man tries to pick her up, as she cries, and kicks, and screams. “You have to go with this nice man”, Daddy tells his eight year old; “He's come to take you far away, to a lovely, all Girls Home” . She sits in the back seat sobbing, while her Daddy goes inside; And as they quietly drive away, a piece of her heart slowly dies.
