MOTHER

MY STRENGTH 

IS EBBING AWAY

A PART OF ME 

HAS PASSED AWAY 

I PLAY THE DIRGE

AND SOME CONCIERGE 

WHO CAN CONSOLE ?

MY SORROWED SOUL

HER GOD SENT LOVE

WAS ALL THAT FILLED MY HEART

AND WHATEVER TRIPPED FROM IT

WAS A REMNANT OF THAT

HOW HER LOVE POURED 

INTO MY HEART

GAVE ME STRENGTH

TO SHARE , TO SACRIFICE

OH ! SWEET MOTHER

IF IT WEREN'T FOR YOU 

I WOULDN'T HAVE KNOWN

CONCERN FOR THE OTHER
                                                                
IT REMAINS FURTHER
TO CHILDREN GATHER

TO POUR A MOTHER'S LOVE

INTO ANOTHER
