I love you so much it hurts

I try to hold back

But in strength I do lack

Cause the tears still come out in spurts

_

I try to be optimistic

Even though I am crying

I know you’ll be fine

My feelings for you are intrinsic

_

I feel you from far away

My heart, well it dies

A little inside

But my head does still know you’re ok

_

Hopefully now we can mend

I yelled and I tried

You fought and I cried

But I know that this isn’t the end

_

Now sorry is all that is felt

Your face is let down

And I now wear the crown

Of a mother engulfed in guilt
