Words Of Love
Obtrusive Demon Destruction (ODD)
Hopeless-
It echoes between my ears
Dripping painfully on my worn heart
Which throbs so forcefully I catch my breath
As It shivers out between my chattering teeth
That clinch as I bite my tongue
Which yearns to yell from my lungs
Where I grasp for air from my chest
And quiver from crying tears from my eyes
They have seen so much pain in my head
Where I grasp with tired hands
Which reach from fingers that shake
As I brush the hair from her face
That frowns
From her cheeks that are stained from angry tears
That fall from uncertain eyes
They see the world from a reflectionless mirror
Where she sleeps
As she grasps the pills in her hands
That Trimble
While her knees collapse from the anger that owns her soul
Which hides from the fear
That Wraps its ugly hands around her heart,
Who screams for help!
And it echoes between my ears
I see you my child
I feel your pain
I hold on for dear life
With my hands
that will never let go!
***************************
My daughter suffers from ODD that is a debilitating disorder that consumes all the joy of life in her heart.
Only meds can help her regulate- if and when we find the right balance.
The exhaustion of saving your child is encapsulated in this piece.
I haven’t written in years as I have been focused on being a mom and working full time.
Writing this was very therapeutic. I will continue.
Thanks for reading this.
