I heard someone crying tonite
A single autism parent
Tired
Alone
Worn out
Wanting out
Without solutions
For a better life for themselves
And their children
A desperate cry for help
From one who appears to have
The strength of many
But it is a silent scream
Some days some years
The pain outweighs the good
The rainbow. The silver lining
Cannot be summoned here
And the will to persevere dwindles
A friend extends a hand
Just one passerby views this life
And lingers for a moment
With only words to offer
The silent scream becomes pure silence
In word and action
And the cleansing tears flow
The heart will regain strength with the new day
Fueled by love
There is no stronger power
Share it widely, please
