Songbird
One day I will stand on green grass,
flowers in hand,
tears on my face for a life I never got to have.
That day I’ll lay to rest more than your soul,
I’ll finally put down this fear that I hold.
That day I will no longer hold these heavy walls,
that day I can love you without the consequence it holds.
That day I’ll be safe from what this world cruely made you,
that day I can love you like I have always longed to.
That day Songbird will play in the background,
purple iris’ and gerber daisies will completely surround you.
I will curl up alone with my face near your headstone,
finally feeling safe with the mother I adored.
Though my heart will always be broken,
that day will no longer be torn. For that day I will know,
a mothers love without scorn.
