MOTHER
Mother is this sanity or a bleeding heart
Is this section of your life to painful to endure
When did you feel the slipping start
Was this the final part
Of life and love, the cruellest blow
Your mind gave up, the curtains came
You looked inside and had to blame
I see you know with blinkered eyes
I see you now with no surmise
The pain of loss deep in your soul
You need me now, but its too cold
I am too real of what you’ve lost
You'd take it back at any cost
You wish your death as soon as soon
To escape the life of ultimate doom
Your pain is etched inside my mind
Our hearts entwine, our pain immense
The things you say are never meant
Although the trail of your harsh words
Are etched inside this mortal soul
I forgive you now, i forgive you then
All I wanted was to be your friend
To comfort you, to make you see
That life is not this purgatory
Of untrue love and broken hearts
You never heard you never would
I guess I never really understood
Your time will come to live again
I wish you joy and many friends
A wealth of love. a wealth of fame
Never to suffer any pain
I love you now and I loved you then
I will sign off now your one true friend
