Within your heart I felt your love
Although it may be more for him
You pulled us through the fire of pain
To hurt him and then us again
You wept until the tears dried up
Then withered did your love become
Like rotting apple one side poison
It festered spread became your reason
No longer were we born of beauty
Cradled by the cloak of love
Instead the anger hatred duty
Broken children we became
Three standing lonely on the hillside
Together no longer can we be
You broke our family and our future
I cry for you and him and me
