A Mothers Broken Love
Here I lay, lifeless, behind your shadow
I try to stand but I fail, I just fall
I can't prevail, I can't win this tough battle
In which I feel so trivial, so small
I screamed for you, throat sore, did you not hear?
My sobs, echoing, like howls in the night
Taking over my body that wild fear
What you did, how you left, it wasn’t right
Broken promises and sad goodbyes from you
Nothing left to do but move on, let go
Like a migrating bird, I too can leave it be
Hang up my gloves, won’t keep up this show
I am not the way I used to be
I am stronger and wiser as you can now see
