A Mother's Lament
I know it isn't healthy
To live in the past
And yet I can't help it
I wanted you
More than anything
And when I found out
About your existence
I was overjoyed
And scared out of my mind
Now that you are gone
I think of you all the time
I am still nauseous
Not because of physical pain
But because it saddens me
To think what could have been
And now never will be
To live in the past
And yet I can't help it
I wanted you
More than anything
And when I found out
About your existence
I was overjoyed
And scared out of my mind
Now that you are gone
I think of you all the time
I am still nauseous
Not because of physical pain
But because it saddens me
To think what could have been
And now never will be
