War strips a mother of her son
she waits and prays that he's
not gone
Her sad, lonely eyes bag through the day
while it causes her pain that her
son is away
she carries on as if her son is still here
wishing madly that he was near
Full of embrace from a helping hand
closer to what was once a boy is now
a man
