Analysis of Heaven’s Yard



I’ve heard you say many times you love and care for us ,too…
But it’s like giving us the manual without any print to help you..
Sort of like when there’s a problem and you find where it starts…
If you care enough you will fix our heads and hearts…
If not you will leave us to go home not knowing…
Whether we’ll see you coming or going…
And what a terrible way to leave this Earth…
People questioning your true sense of value and worth…
In a world so full of sickness and dismay…
Mental illness in the family has had one final stay…
Because I have Gods love written in me from the start…
When I’m worried He lifts me both head and heart..
My only wish I’ll see you Mom & Dad there..
To a higher ground so vast it’s beyond compare.
