I Cry For They Wont Listen

My heart weeps for the young people today,
lost they are for no one ever showed them the way.
Looking for love and left to fend for themselves,
they feel their lives are pure hell.

I cry for they wont listen when my love is given today,
I try my very best to show them the way.
Time and time again they fall back and reach out their hand,
and I cry for the love they so need unseeing here I stand.

Walk with me and know you aren't alone ,
for my love is as the strength of a rolling stone .
One who builds character and shows the way,
to look beyond the sorrows and know their blessed this day.

Angels in this world are of human form ,
they come into your life and calm the storm.
Open your eyes and know life is what you make it to be,
and if you can read this poem I'm talking about you indeed.

To fold within oneself is not the way to go,
for it's up to you and old sorrows must be let go.
The new you is right there and waiting for you to take a stand,
And know to find joy and happiness will come only from your own two hands.

If you think drugs takes you to a better place,
then honey go look in the mirror and you tell me today.
Where is that smile you once carried and a happy heart,
yes you have left this all behind when you took part.

Blame it on others from this day on I think not you see ,
for from this day on you have me .
I will treat you as my very own ,
and the love I share is the best you have ever known.

Now get yourself up from there and clean yourself up,
know just sitting and hoping for better days is not enough.
Get yourself out in the world and find yourself today,
and know this is your life you so want so take the lead I say.

Notice what things brings you down,
and if you see this no longer have it around.
This includes some friends if you want to be well,
and know so often we create our own hell.

Now get a notebook and a pen and write the story of your life ,
Don't be upset if  some things are now wiped from your mind.
It's the ways of the drugs they so feed upon the brain,
leaving you starved and scared and unable to find your way .

Listen to me and know if you have never felt this love ,
Know I'm reaching out to help you so take my hands and rise up .
Know that once you review your life and it will help you see ,
The very instant you left your life behind but today you have me .

Talk to me and come walk with me and you will see ,
no pain is too strong when you let love take the lead.

Try to smile everyday and leave the hurting person behind

And your life will turn around and the teares will dry .

Then look at yourself in the mirror as that sparkle returns to your eyes .

This is how I would so love a child of mine .

    Very touching write from one with so many 'storiestobetold'... This part was probably the most moving part of this entire piece to me:

    "Notice what things brings you down,
    and if you see this no longer have it around.
    This includes some friends if you want to be well,
    and know so often we create our own hell." There is simply so much power in these words. Nicely told...

    These are very nice sentiments towards others in a world torn by dark forces. Thank you so dearly for letting your sunshine on us all. Peace. (Oh yes, I think in the last stanza you didn't spell mirror right. TC!)

    Wonderful!

    I think that this poem can speak to everyone! We have all been in that place of poor decisions and debilitating situations. I can truly feel a loving heart through this poem. It is certainly lovely. In the second to last line it says "nirrors" instead of "mirrors".
