empty vows

yelling again, she thought she had left this behind,
one bad relationship to another.
dragging her kids through hell,
they learn not to trust a soul.

falling apart, she doesnt know where to turn,
wanting to make things right without knowing how,
"i promise i promise i promise"
all of these an empty vow.

drugs are who she turns to,
they make her feel so numb,
letting the demons swallow her whole,
giving her kids no escape.

falling apart, she doesnt know where to turn,
wanting to make things right without knowing how,
"i promise i promise i promise"
all of these an empty vow.

so tonight she'll see her daughter for the last time,
but right now she has no clue
we wish she was stronger then this,
but mom i still love you.

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!

    Ooh...characterizations of a Mom hurting her family with her drug habit...To be strong for her children is what they need...and you dear K...look on and love her anyways...you speak so candidly about the real world you and so many live in! keep penning!
