Poetry by Jenna Lynn Williams
Mother's Day
Sucks for me
When I can't see
1, 2 or 3
Mother's Day
Is just another day
Of the year
To cry tears
I'll never see
1, 2 or 3
As long as he's
Controlling me
It's not just
Mother's Day
Today is
Roy's birthday
My heart
Is breaking
Because
He is taking
1, 2 & 3
Away from me
Just like he said
I may as well b dead
He won't let me call
No, not at all
He's replacing me
For 1, 2 & 3
He's telling them
I don't love them
He's telling them
I don't want them
Morgan and Beanie
R going to fail
William Ross
Will end up in jail
He does not care
He just wants them there
This is not fair
I'm pulling out my hair
I am to blame
I fell for his games
Like a dumbass Dame
He is fucking lame
I need representation
For my situation
I don't know what to do
For 1, 3 & 2
The truth u can't tell
They'll twist your words

He's taking my 3
Away from me
No one can see
The neglect but me
DSS made a mess
Of all of this
My kids will not
Have any bliss
They say he is fine
To b around kids
They say kids aren't mine
They say they r his
He has control
IF I see them
He has control
That's the way it rolls
I am so afraid
This will happen again
I may never see
My babies again
He's cutting me
Out of their lives
It makes me wanna shout
Beanie's almost 5
I'm missing out
Because I'm not there
I'm missing out
Because he don't share
He teaches them lies
And that makes me cry
He's brainwashing them
To lie for him

I'm not eating
I'm not sleeping
But he's beating
And he's keeping
This is a game
That he plays
He has new fame
At end of day
This is about
Popularity
This ain't about
Stability

He's taken away
1, 2 & 3
He's taken away
Them from me
They'll go back
To all the slack
He has a knack
Of going behind my back
David got them back
They did not tell
They went back to slack
They went back to Hell
Now he's denying
Me visitation
Now he's lying
About the situation
He'll fill their heads
W/ all kinds of lies
When they go to bed
And at night when they lie
That I don't love them
That this is best for them
To go live w/ him
To lie for him

He's gotten away
With molesting all 3
He's trying to take
Them away from me
No one will
Listen to me
No one cares
About my 3
They r not
In a good place
When they're with him
They're all over the place
My oldest gets
What he wants
My little two
Only get don't's
Don't do this
Don't do that
Only the favorite
Can do that

He's gotten away
With it again
More I think 'bout it
I wanna sin

He takes more
Of my rights
Night after night
He takes more away
Day after day
Just so he can say
He is in control
That's the way he rolls
Don't want me in their lives
The stress causes me hives
Now I have less
And that causes stress
Pretty soon I'll have none
And then I'll b done
I'll have no reason
Left in me to breathe
They r my reason
And that's y I seethe
He's not taking care
He would not dare
He never has
DSS kiss my ass!
They'lll never find
That he is unkind
They'll never see
That he is crazy
He has me
Where he wants me
At his beck and call
Where he makes the calls
My husband can't b
Their new daddy
Because DSS
Is in all this mess
That is brainwashing
That's what they say
They let my ex
Always get his way
Poor hygiene
Is a "parenting issue"
School work left undone
Is "not their problem"
My kids r living
In a monster's house
My children r living
With a big louse
They're teeth r rotten
With silver in their mouth
My oldest has gotten
What he wants, behavior gone south
They'll never see
My ex for what he is
They just see him
Professional, biz
My babies r growing
Up without me
My babies will grow
Up to b like he
