For Your Protection Poem by Eli MorenoDrew

Now I know how my mother felt
I cannot pull out of this driveway,
I ask you: Please put on your seatbelt.

Sure the angels may have helped
But I do not want them to take you away
Now I know how my mother felt.

My love for you is rightfully dealt
So take heed of what I say,
I ask you: Please put on your seatbelt.

For I would truly melt
If the Lord were to take you away,
Now I know how my mother felt.

Losing you would leave an undying welt
On my heart. So every day I pray.
I beg you: Please put on your seatbelt.

I never want to see you boxed by wood and felt
And I I hope that you realize someday:
Now I know how my mother felt,
I pray you: Please put on your seatbelt.
