Analysis of You didn't
Shonda Stafford 1988 (Shattuck)
You was so close I could touch you but yet so far away!
You was Right there and I didn't see you; they hid you well!
You was there in a car so after judgement they pulled you out to flaunt you in my face & take pictures.
You didn't know that I had been looking for you all this time!
You didn't know that they kept you bizy to keep you away from me!
You didn't know all those years I didn't give you up.
You didn't know that they kept you away from me!
You didn't know they ran away with you when they first took you I was court ordered to be allowed visits.
You didn't know you were being brain washed only because of their selfish hate of me.
You didn't know that I loved you and never stopped!
You didn't know your dad was going to run that stop sign on purpose as you rest peacefully that 10pm that night!
You WAS NEVER TOLD THE TRUTH BEFORE MAY 13TH ,2021 RIP
WITH LOVE YOUR REAL MOM AFTER 12years of fighting for you to come home our lord now has another Angel

About this poem
This is about having her in reach the last time I saw her if only I would have known it was the last time I would have taken more pictures of her and made a scene
