Christmas has come back again For the third year in a row And we haven't seen our precious son Ever since he had to go To jail then off to rehab Then violating two probation's the court ordered no contact So we've had no conversations Cause he'd abused his Mom so much Leaving her soul terrified and came after me so angrily Every time that he got high we both tried in every way we could But then we had to say goodbye....
Christmas on drugs and alcohol Was never a good mix Hannah plus cruel addictions Just brings candle sadly lit Santa Claus and faith in God Are not enough to bring a fix Only he can save himself No one else can heal his needs That have made both our hearts bleed while he spends his hollow days Struggling to find ways to succeed.
He'll spend another Christmas In sober living all alone Far away from both his parents Knowing that he can't come home And it cuts us deeply to the bone Cause our tough love is no fun But drugs and alcohol have stolen Our most precious son Until he proves that he is cured and his addictions are all done.
So if you too are like our son Suffering the same afflictions I hope this poem moves you to flee Back to the true life you've been missing Because those who love you can't survive Living with the endless friction Of your lies and thefts And thier hopes left swept Underneath your opposition Your loved ones all must separate themselves from your positions Of your loving highs even as they cry Over your tragic conditions Leaving you alone while they sit at home Praying for you and each one wishing That you will give all that you've lost Some serious recognition Before you end up lying Under a marble inscription that leaves them all Without your love Another victim of addiction so many others just like you Have faced Death's Benedictions....
By- Matthew F.Blowers III-(C)-2022 at Art-Whimsically Yours Studio This poem is dedicated to ny son, my only child who has been through his fault alone absent from my wife and I for 3 years without contact
