Flowing Tears by mai_serratos
Parents fear
Children run fouls of the law
Into jail they go
Family honor disgrace
Parents hope
The children grow
Upright citizens following law
Behave show courtesy
Parents know
Children can be hard to control
Growing up years changes form
Children can be bad
Only crying in silent prayers
No parents want
Children to be bad
Sometimes they happen
Questions of motives
Thinking the years of neglect
Parents silent tears
Minds feeling loss
The shame in their eyes
Yet lives must go on
