On My Mind All Night Long.He was on my mind all night long, I just couldn't get to sleep, Cos every time I closed my eyes, His little face started to creep. I thought about how he must be feeling, And wondered about his heart, And the fact that it was broken, Because they said he needed another new start! Well how many starts can he have, this lad? And how many times must he be upset! Before they come to know that; These things he will never forget! Do you give your own child away? When you have had them a short while? No, we don't because it's for life! Yet they have taken this kids smile! And how will that affect him in the future? Because at the moment I can honestly say; They've broken his heart, they have! When they took him away that day! The authorities don't know it all! How can they? When they hurt a child, Because they think it's for the good of him! And his fears are running wild! Do they even really care? About the kids who are messed up inside! And all because of no fault of their own! Oh but the tears he has cried! He's all lost and feels so alone, But I told him he has to be good, And be strong, and don't be upset! To do himself proud, and smile; And I promised we'll never forget! So last night after writing it all out, I just couldn't get to sleep; Because thoughts of him in tears and fear; Into my mind did creep. He's a good kid, he really is, But the fear in him is great… He is floundering in hurt and pain, Because he doesn't know his fate! So how do I explain to him now? That this is another chapter in a page! When he is so terrified of the future, That it threw him into a blind rage! And he trashed his room and swore, Screaming he didn't want to leave! And though we wanted him to stay; He couldn't and now many hearts grieve! God Help Him This Day! Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
