Remorse for leaving someone behind.
Shutting, shutting, shutting doors
BAM.
Another tear cried.
Another child abandoned.

Hurt for the pain they’ve caused before .
When will people THINK?
Think of the trust issues they’ve caused.
A child’s cry to their mother.
When is daddy coming home?
Never the mom replies holding back tears.
He chose to shut that door long ago.
A child’s cry to their father.
When is momma coming home?
Never the father says through clenched teeth.
She couldn’t put down the needle.
The drugs shut the door for her.
Shutting, shutting, shutting doors
BAM.
Another tear cried.
Another child abandoned.
