You’re driving home to New Jersey <br />With a heart full of fear and sadness. <br />A year ago, your father drove to see you, <br />His old eyes still bright with vibrant life; <br />Now you make a trip you don’t want to make <br />Back to your girlhood home <br />That you fear is vanishing forever. <br />On such occasions, I hope prayers <br />Fly into the heart of God, <br />I’ll try to make this trip with you<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/unwelcome-journey/
