Subject: A POEM ABOUT ARD
ARD
There's a flood that's coming Why? From all my tears There's a tremor coming Why? From all my fears There's a volcano about to erupt Why? From the agonizing pain
The tears flow like a constant running steam The fears are of the future and what it will bring The pain rips through my body Like lightning strikes a tree The anguish and the sorrow are because I'll be the same tomorrow
The guilt I have to bear Is though I've committed a crime The burden on my family For it should be ME, the one, that's there to care
The sadness runs deep within me For I cannot Change What we have to suffer Me, My family, Are all VICTIMS OF ARD
