Mama

[gypsyshadow]

MAMA.

There is depth in your eyes

a mirror to the darkness within

but I can't see beneath the pain you feel.

Let me inside your strength,

I want to shoulder you.

Let me inside your fears,

I'll throw them all away.

Let me hold your hand,

I'll keep it warm with love.

Lean on me, I'm older now.

Lean on me, I'm bigger now.

Lean on me, I'll catch your weight.

I'll keep the spark of hope,

keep it burning bright

'til it reaches the heavens.

Learn.

Learn to fight.

I'll fight your battles.

Love.

Love yourself because I do.

Don't ever let go, I'll go mad.

I'm always going to hold your hand

I'll never leave you.

Please, don't ever leave me.
