No spotlight on the past… Live under the radar… Inhale to exhale…

Walked a lonesome path, yes you did, received seldom a helping hand yet you give…

Orphan, fostering orphans

pretty wishing to be ugly

widowed in war,

A refugee with a voice,

A woman in a man’s world

A mother to many

She is in their prayers but alone in practice

I don’t know all your reasons… But I know what I have witnessed…

Aggressive Men with guns,

I was there when they took you out of the car…

No time to cry or to hold…

Let the orphans go you begged… But, you were an orphan too!

They let us go… I screamed looking back until you were out of sight… (Age five)

To stay alive in captivity no it ain’t easy… You had to make terminating your spirit less attractive… robbed, sanity disturbed… Lost everything but your life…

No spotlight on the past… Live under the radar… Inhale to exhale…oh I get ya!

Walked a lonesome path, yes you did, received seldom a helping hand yet you give…

Life isn’t a black-and-white Disneyland picture…
