I'm At A Loss…


I'm at a loss, don't know what to do!
Don't know how to take his pain away!
So I sit and I type, and cry and sob,
For my heart is broken this day!

How do I explain to a 12 year old?
That we didn't want him to go away?
And more, that there was nothing we could do,
They took him, when he wanted to stay!

12 years old, but younger in mind,
This kid is as bright as a star in the sky,
Yet they took that smile this day…
And made the little kid cry!

So he looks to me for help!
But I don't know what the hell to do!
And if they knew he had contacted me!
They would remove that contact from me too!

So I whisper it will be okay,
And tell him to go to sleep and be good,
And I promise that I will always be here,
Just as of course, I should!

He sounded so tiny on the phone,
And as scared as a rabbit would be,
So he looked to me for comfort this night,
And I'm at a loss, how could that be!

Because I don't know how to make it better,
I don't know how to take his pain away,
All I can do, is comfort him,
And beg for God's help as I pray;

And say;

‘Our Father up in Heaven above,
Can you please help this little lad's pain!
And give me the wisdom to help him;
And make it all better for him again!'

So tonight before I lay down for sleep,
Special prayers will be sent His way,
As I ask for God's divine intervention;
To help this little lad this day!

And I pray that He does.
