ONE MORE TIME

She took her child and ran into the night,
I searched for them they were nowhere in sight.

     My world shattered I don’t know what to do,
I’m not missing just one, but there is two.

     I have spent ten years taking care of the child,
Cast out of his life I was Exiled.

     I miss his laughter, his voice and the looks on his face,
With the two of them gone I feel so out of place.

     Getting over her was not easy it was tough,
He was a blessing a Diamond in the rough.

     It’s been over a year, and they tell me he is tall,
My hands are tied my backs against the wall.

     I thought I would see him grow up become an adult,
A fine young man my input a direct result.

     I love him as if he were mine,
I would give my life to see him just ONE MORE TIME….
