Mother Of The Imprisoned Child

Mother Of The Imprisoned Child

by Paul McCann

Mother of the imprisoned child

I’ve been living like a prisoner

for years under their control

set me free from the anchored shackles

around my heart and soul..

Mother of the imprisoned child

they can’t see what they have done ,

now it’s time for them to let go.

Open their eyes, speak to their heart ,

move them aside so they’d know .

Mother of the imprisoned child

Tell them to stop .

It’s been going too long ,

look what I’ve become.

Smash down the door of ignorance,

Show them the harm they have done .

Mother of the imprisoned child

They’ve put me down too many times,

with an attitude they were right ,

and left me there in the dark ,

where I couldn’t see any light .

Mother of the imprisoned child,

Yesterday has gone now ,

but tomorrow still has time to wait .

Help them to adapt and adjust to change ,

before it’s too late.
