When I Saw My Mother Cry

Created by CorpusMortis on Wednesday, July 08, 2009

When I saw my mother cry

I knew everything had changed

That I knew that my life was broken

And would never be the same

When ever I see people laugh

There is a longing in my chest

I wish that I had a friend

That could help me through the tests

Lend a hand through the hard times

I could tell my secrets to

But no one ever stays with

A toy that is broken in two

It’s not my fault I’m empty

That I cry and night

And I’m trying really hard

To put up a fight

But I guess that’s not enough

All people have to struggle

All people have lives to live

And it would be selfish

To ask for someone to give

Just a little help

Just a little love

I don’t think I can hold on

While waiting for a miracle from above

‘Cause When I saw my mother cry

My entire word fell apart

And I can’t expect any one to care for

A girl who couldn't fit into her mother’s heart
