Torn Bonds

Big smiles
Bright eyes
Tiny hands
Strong ties

Loving embrace
I smile when I see your face
I finally got what I wanted

Everyone stood in my way
But I finally got you that day
A family was made
Bonds were formed that day

A tiny face
Smiling at me
Small hands grasp my fingers

A smiling face
Ashen and pale
Everything's fine
Everything's fine

A new scent
A new perfume
I didn't buy
Lies are falling
Lies are falling

A sad face
Tears streaming down
Red cheeks
Hot hand

Casket
Five feet long
Six below
Six below

Tiny hands are grasping
Bonds are teared
I'm no longer there.

A sad face
Tears are streaming
Silent screaming
No one to help
No one to help.

Gray skin
No light.
A knife nears
I won't put up a fight.
