Your Mother’s Heart

Twenty-five years old but still not a man,
your addiction is harming you as only it can.
Can’t you see the toll on your mother’s heart this is taking?

You live in an immature world filled with lies.
Awash in alcohol, your sense of responsibility dies.
Can’t you see the scars on your mother’s heart you are making?

No career and no hope of marriage or family have you.
In debt, credit cards maxed out – now what can you do?
Can’t you see how much your poor mother’s heart is aching?

Arrested for Driving While Intoxicated thrice in two years,
your facing time in jail has brought your mother many tears.
Listen, son. Can’t you hear your mother’s heart breaking?
