To my wonderful son Kurt........Thanks for turning your
life around
Today is the day of all fears
My eyes they are just filled up with tears
Why are you crying someone asked
My word! is my pain that obvious?

Everytime I move trying day by day
To cope with my son's life who's gone astray
It hurts to think back such a short while ago
I took him in my arms and promised to never
let go

Now it seems that I've fell back on that
promise to love and to hold and to always be
honest
God knows I've tried to constrain the pain
I feel
And everyday I'm wondering "is this for real?"
