I remember when I was a child, I cried myself to sleep
I thought I'd have to face the next day, alone and very scared
My sobbing would not stop, the pain inside my heart
As I watched someone I loved so much, lost within this world
They were supposed to take good care of me and true they did do this
But emotionally they were not there, mental Illness had found them
Sometimes a parent I would feel, as all my love I would give to them
I thought this would make them well and take their pain away
How wrong was I, some years have passed, an adult I've become
The pain that was present in their life, has never gone back home
I watch a life be wasted, so much they could have shared
But deep inside their very soul, a scared child is where they've stayed
I suppose my journey as taken me to a place, where my faith shines a light
They've watched as I have grown into a beautiful woman after all
I know the guilt resides in them, but they do not have to carry that
My love for them as always remained the same, I love them more each day
Love, light and healing energies too you all
Tm
