His Day in Court

Today was the day he was to appear in court

and hear the charges he's up against.

It's been on my mind alot.

I wonder how he made out.

I wonder if he's okay.

I wonder...

Being the mother of a heroin addict

is not fun and not for the feint of heart.

It's a gut wrenching, emotional rollercoaster.

I wonder if he's had his day in court.

I wonder what the judge threw at him.

I wonder...

Uncertainty, questions without answers,

mind wandering...

I wander, I wonder, I exist.
