Poem Artwork

 Hereditary

 

Mirrored image

A freckled face child

Ocean blue eyes

A beautiful smile.

 

Heart palpitations

Ringing in the ear

Body aches too

Seven stents in a year.

 

What a waste

Medications galore

This time is realized

It stops at the door.

 

Mirrored image

A freckled face smile

Ocean blue eyes

Isn’t afraid to die.

I don't have complete information to respond. It appears that your son or daughter may have a hereditary disease that you're trying to deal with. After what you went through with your mother and father, I can't see why you would be faced with more.

Stay strong and write.
