Silent
Screams
By: Rose Barbour
The storm clouds are all around
her
She prays they’ll go away
The blue sky of yesterday
Is now an ominous gray.
The wind is picking up
Through the streets she roams
Looking for her child
So she can bring him home.
The lightning spreads across
the sky
Threatening to strike
She fears for his safety
Her chest is feeling tight.
She can’t find him anywhere
The streets are so mean
She looks to the sky and weeps
God, help me please!
Her cries are drowned out
By the chaos all around
The rain is beating down on her
While the thunder pounds.
She takes refuge from the storm
Needing a new plan
Questioning a life
That is so hard to understand.
She slowly starts to leave
Hanging tight to her phone
Shaking like a leaf
And feeling so alone.
There’s no family she can call
No friends to lend an ear
Just her silent screams
And a pillow full of tears.
Addiction has stolen her child
And it mocks her love
It hurts like hell
But she’ll never give up.

the journey with an addicted child is like being caught up in a terrifying and
threatening storm that we have no control over, we can never lose hope. Individuals
and families do recover.....all the time. Never give up!
Life can already be hard in our addictive state of mind. Finding that change and that will power to find. It's hard all over, this addiction we have to deal in our life, but what breaks the spirit, is a child addicted to end all this strife. By God look down at us, your creation who in you we sought, we hold an account but what of the child who isn't to fault. I feel your pain silent screams, no demon could administer such a pain. I am of the ones born in addiction, and to date have followed every users gain. I hate this day and the after, I want peace and calm can't they see. But the world is falling around us, just another thing, why not just blame me.
