it
isn’t all about the party
it
isn’t all about the next high
or
the friend that says “lets go”
it
is about your children
they
suffer from the obsession
the
gotta be there can’t miss a thing
obsession
and
it is a sickness
I know this sickness
I’ve had this sickness
and
you need help
and I don’t know what to do
how
to get you back
how
to make you see that the party is over
at least the party your looking for
there is a party
a better party
where children laugh
and don’t worry about mom
where she is
if she’ll come home
if the lights will stay on
of if they have to move in the night
but
only
you
can decide now
only you can RSVP
we
want
you home
we
want
you well
come to our party
I’m begging you here
on my knees see
let’s get some help
things can be better
I know this I believe this
I know that you are hurt
and that you feel lost
and that the pain is real
but I also know that there
is strength in you
and that
you can move beyond the hell
that you see
nothing is Ever Perfect
nothing is Ever Pie in the Sky
dream boat wonderful
but
there are Good things
great things
there is happiness for you
there is
there is
but You have to decide that
we
love
you
you are invited
to
the party of your life
all the people that love you the most
will be there
we’ve been planning it for years
it will last
forever
and
you will always
be
glad
that you came
RSVP ASAP

Josie, this fit her like a T. I pray that she heeds your advise. Meantime we wait for her next move.
As always Josie.. your style.. like you are talking directly to me.. this is so bittersweet.. Love lost but maybe not forever.. because you have left the door open.

Great piece Jo.
Your frustration is felt. Unfortunately, sometimes we have to let consequences do their part in convincing someone to change.
