Seeking Justice: An Rachel and Ashley Poetic story
Combing through the satin tresses of her hairs
Which in public could illicit hateful stares
I kiss the shapely curve of her cheek
The sleeper shifts the bed with a squeak
Morning honey did you sleep well
No I worried with no peace I fell
We'll be ok trust me we'll make it through
If they take our kids what would we do
I can't tell you your parents won't try
But we'll fight them I tell you no lie
I wish they would leave us all alone
They were the ones to cast the first stone
We were happy and did not want this fight
They're only doing what they think is right
Does that justify the battle we face
No hatred is evil they have no case
How can our kids call them grandma or grandpa after this
How could we not teach our kids what a hateless worldview is
This will define them you do not understand
This may define us its not what we planned
How do we forgive my mother and father
Maybe in a dream if we can see farther
This isn't smoke signals I'm not going to mellow
I'm not asking you too honey you can bellow
I'm sorry for being this way
Forgiven I love you each day
Lets make breakfast now honey then get the kids to their aunt
We'll be calm for them and protect them from things that they can't
We will be okay
God willing I pray

The worrier shifts the bed with a squeak
My kiss for the shapely curve of her cheek
Which in private always entices joyful stares
I comb through the satin tresses of her hairs
