Mama

A child telling their mother that it is okay to move on. Even when it is hard!

Mama
You say you're okay.
I can see you are lying!
Its written on your face.

Mama
I can't quite see,
Why you let him come back.
Why can't you just leave?

Mama
I can see your in fear!
The pain in your eyes ,
Will not leave with your tears!

Mama
Why is your eye black?
Oh, no! Not again!
Did you even fight back?

Mama
I know he was cruel.
Yes, Ma! I'm not blind!
He treated you as a fool.

Mama
Don't give up the fight!
You have gotten this far!
Stand up for what's right!

Mama
It's been 5 years since he's been gone.
You can't leave me here all lonesome.
You have got to move on!
