I cannot do this
I see you standing there in agony
I just lay my face in my hands
I need your strength
Do not cry now momma
We are together
You are never alone
You are my angel
My best friend
I am your mirror image
I remember when Dad died
I heard you shudder
Tears rolled down your cheek
meeting my shoulder
It was over
But just a beginning
I can remember
Farther back
I was a child
Everyone judged me except you
You said I was worth it
To you I was perfect
Your beautiful baby boy
So for your strengh I give strength
I will be your table to lean on
chair to push up on
to help you stand again
Do not fret momma
This is not an ending
You WILL make it
I will make sure of it
I see you laying there
angusish on your face
I just hide myself
must get away from this place
Your pain kills me
You are the only one I trust
The only one who loves me
No MATTER what I do
When I stole as a youth
you loved me
When I dropped out of school
you loved me
When I left you for my love
you loved me
And when I need to be loved now?
You'll love me
Everytime I think it comes from you
The anxiety over your pain
The beautiful poetry I deliver
The words I choose to sing
They are yours momma, not mine
I hide my despair
A weeping willow is never seen
A stoic tree keeps the balance
I give to you not charity
none of this is free
I merely give back to you
what you freely gave to me
And as you hide your hurt
and I too seek help above
We must never speak a word
for' we know each other's love
I see you standing there in agony
I just lay my face in my hands
I need your strength
Do not cry now momma
We are together
You are never alone
You are my angel
My best friend
I am your mirror image
I remember when Dad died
I heard you shudder
Tears rolled down your cheek
meeting my shoulder
It was over
But just a beginning
I can remember
Farther back
I was a child
Everyone judged me except you
You said I was worth it
To you I was perfect
Your beautiful baby boy
So for your strengh I give strength
I will be your table to lean on
chair to push up on
to help you stand again
Do not fret momma
This is not an ending
You WILL make it
I will make sure of it
I see you laying there
