She was once wonderful, elegant and smart
A loving mother who captured many hearts
One day this changed, as addiction cursed her name
Her heart grew cold, harmful to touch
she showed no love, no remorse for her sins
She just hid away with her addiction to blame
She loved her children deep down inside
But would just stare at them blankly as they hurled and cried
No goodnight stories, no lullaby\'s
No hugs or kisses were often in light
Only screams and cries with no mother in sight
As she grew more hateful
With her children growing the same
They knew they would get no love, even if they sulked for days
They would be cursed with bitter words
It would scar their hearts in pain
They would be blamed for her mistakes, as they are children in the devils name
But they still loved her just the same and would continue playing in her games
