AT EASE...

poem by: Frank Hornby .
Written on Aug 06, 2019

"Don't leave me...tell me why you have to go?
Will you come back to see me?..I really need to know.
Don't you care about my mum?..it hurts to hear her cries,
she finds it hard to smile these days...I see the sadness in her eyes.
Was it the birth of me?..that made you decide to leave,
because the thought of abandoning my own kids...I find that hard to believe!
You never got to know me...I'm sure we would've happily got on,
but you didn't give me half a chance..I grew into a confused, and angry son.
I knew that I was different..as I reached my teenage years,
my head was spinning with so many questions...but I was scared to face my fears.
Now my time is drawing near...with answers blowing on the breeze,
I'm truly blessed with how my life turned out...and my mind is now at ease."
