Uncontrollable, unrelentless,
timeless agonizing
over someone selfishness and fear
to seperate me physically and mentally
from my beloved daughters and son
Reminded over and over again
on a past mistake but had
been reassured by everyone that
the past is past and that one must
go on and forgive
While I wait I go over and over in my mind
the suffering of one so innocent and human
that has paid a terrible, inhumane price of a learning
mistake

Interesting, I think this would have benefited from more length and detail though, and I'm not sure I see the beautiful side of it. Hopefully this is not a personal piece, the despair is paramount as pictured...

There is no beauty in my life
THere is only despair and that is the beauty of it.
