Lovers find Others then Return to the First

[cambria33]

Mother,
you cant help yourself
but
i'm no physician,
i'm no psyciatrist.
you're asleep when i'm awake,
and when you're awake, you're barely alive.
you're barely getting by.
i've followed your blood lines,
but i'm thinking it's time to start my own.
God, Mother,
i've found a lover.
he loves like father loves you
he'll uphold me like your lover holds you.
hold on to him,
don't look to me.
he's walked down your paths,
and it's time i leave.
this isn't my battle,
and it's not the family for me any more.
it's time for you and father to rekindle your flame
and me to fan mine.
my lover knows me better than any other,
so, Mother, ask father, and he'll tell you the same.
