A Mother’s Broken Heart

My darling it’s time to go to school.

Something that pains me more then you.

I know at school I’m not there to protect you to help you and kids can be so cruel.

I think about you all day long and pray to God nothing goes wrong.

What did she mean when she said your a “werido” was she messing around, joking?

Or was she poking fun and provoking?

You may be different, they may not understand you but that my Darling is more special then you realize.

And behind my eyes theres tears a Mother’s Broken Heart but she keeps it close and dear.

For one day everything will be okay. Your smart and kind some might think your a little behind

But I can see your shine ✨ that shine that straightens my spine, grabs my boot straps and keeps my chin up

You hop out of my car excited for today, these kids are so brave, fearless and strong to say they don’t belong, shut your mouth because you couldn’t be more wrong!

To the mothers out there who nervously wave their child off for the day, sheds a tear as they roll away

Looks to the heavens and prays and prays for God to send a friend to play

I know our mornings are much different then others

But to all My Special Needs Mother’s

As you turn that corner I know those broken pieces are stabbing thru but I promise you that kid you sent off to school , that beautiful jewel

Will be ok. And one day Mama so will you.
