Mother’s Cry
My heart feels weird
My eloquence escapes me
My son’s actions hurt me
My emotions are off balanced
I read the news
He lacks “personal motivation”
The words mock me
The teacher is giving up
My cries have been dispatched
To my God seated with me
He is my only hope
He is my only sanctity
Father, have you heard me?
My son has strayed away
How Lord will he make it
Without you to guide his way?
Jesus, I am leaning
Upon your strength today
God you know I can’t do it
Any other way
My mind whispers, I’ve failed you
I did not take good care
Of this treasure of life you gave me
Some twelve odd years to date
I admit oh Lord I need you
To help me do this job
Help me Lord to serve you best
In how I raise my son
