Blood on the Hands of CPS

Blood on the Hands of CPS

CPS came to take your child
They don’t care who you are,
You go before a ruthless Judge,
Paid off, lying without a care

Caseworker on the witness stand
Proud as a peacock but still a fool,
Perjury here and another lie there
False accusations are the tool

The Judges harsh order comes downΒ 
As you sit in shock and disbelief,
Your child screams when being taken
While CPS sits back with a look of relief

Your child given to a foster familyΒ 
For how long you don’t know,
Given medications in foster care now
A child ridden with anxiety and vertigoΒ 

You hope your child is being fed
Every day ebbs into another night,
You hope they are being looked after
But your child is out of sight

What happens now when you hearΒ 
Through the media or in a town,
Of a precious one found dead
Through no fault of their own

The God almighty dollar rules
Foster care parents are to blame,
A light sentence to be handed down
Your hearts will never be the same

Hello Maryann...

Many CPS workers don't have kids...

They haven't had to sacrifice a thing...

They don't worry about anything and many think when they have kids if they do that they'll be a better parent and nothing like this will happen to them...

I told one I guess you'll be feeding them with paper plates so you don't get a dirty dish in your sink...

Don't be silly she said to me I have a dishwasher...

It wasn't anything other than she happened to be in Court one day and I found out she had a case so I took the opportunity to ask her...

I just happened to be there...

You can't be cocky with them when they already have you guilty the moment they show up...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...

Thank you and you are so right. The one I had has her own kids, but apparently heartless. Β She was disgusting on the witness stand, I don’t understand how a Judge can believe their BS and focus on the target family. Such cruelty toward children that have to suffer this trauma, but also the parent/parents are traumatized too. Β What a disaster CPS is!
