Songs For My Granddaughter (lyrics at the end of the post)

 Custodial Interference from the Perspective of a child not allowed to visit with the other parent:  


A Message From Grandma: 



Lyrics: Invisible Chains 

[Verse]

Little heart is aching heavy with the rain

Punished just for loving whispering your name

Mother's voice a shadow locked away in chains

Loneliness digs deeper deeper are the pains


[Verse 2]

Grandma's arms are empty silence in the halls

Pictures of her laughter hanging on the walls

Hopes that she can hear me echo in the night

Every time I reach out fades into the light


[Chorus]

Invisible chains holding me tight can't break free

Every word spoken feels like a distant memory

They try to tear us apart like we're not meant to be

But I see you in my dreams mama won't you come for me


[Verse 3]

Silent cries in darkness whispers of despair

Echoes of your laughter floating through the air

Someone's got the power carving out the scars

But your love feels closer even from afar


[Bridge]

Wish upon a star

A child broken torn apart

Eyes that once were glowing now a shattered heart

Dreams of better days are turning into mist

All the love we're missing every hug we missed


[Chorus]

Invisible chains holding me tight can't break free

Every word spoken feels like a distant memory

They try to tear us apart like we're not meant to be

But I see you in my dreams mama won't you come for me


Lyrics: Whispers of Love 

[Verse]

They've drawn lines between our hearts

Painted walls to keep us apart

But through shadows hear my voice

In this silence we have no choice


[Verse 2]

Mama's love is a gentle sea

Though you're far you can always see

Grandma's dreams float on every breeze

You'll find her whispers in the trees


[Chorus]

So when the night closes in tight

Feel their love as it takes flight

Through the stars and moonlight gleam

Your heart's a beacon in their dream


[Verse 3]

No words but love still makes its way

Through the clouds into your day

Every tear a path it clears

Warm reminders through the years


[Bridge]

Here's a secret held so dear

You are treasured never fear

In their hearts your name's engraved

Little star you are so brave


[Chorus]

So when the night closes in tight

Feel their love as it takes flight

Through the stars and moonlight gleam

Your heart's a beacon in their dream

Ode to a Homeless Vet: Lost and Forgotten

  [Verse] Wandering streets with no place to call home Faded camo a ghost of where I've roamed Dog tags clang in rhythm like a sorrowful...
