As the crow awaits...

As the crow awaits...

A pretty little girl with a cough, sitting by her bedside, tears won't stop,
I know the time will come, when I won't be able to kiss her forehead,
The pale grey skin, wishing I could take her place and lay in the bed,
How long does she have to suffer like this? Enough is enough.

Mam,
As medication numbs the pain,
The eyes of the crow, eagerly awaits,
My heart still beats, but death so near,
As the crow awaits, I have no fear.

I hold your breath, I'll speak of memories of when you lived joyously,
I gave birth to you, I'm not supposed to see you pass away in my lifetime,
You don't deserve this my darling, you will live through me wholeheartedly,
I'll remember every good morning and goodnight, with your loving smile.

Why?
Why?
Why my daughter? so young and so precious to me,
She is all I have,
All I live for,
I don't understand!
You have taken young girls dreams,
You have taken young girls hopes,
You have taken young girls love,

Mam,
So dark but yet inviting, I hold no fear where I'm going,
Mam,
I've lived two years of therapy but still in such pain,
Mam,
With my eye's like his, the crow eagerly awaits,

There is love up in heaven, I feel it, it's so overwhelming,
You taught me to be strong, now it is your time to do the same, I'm in too much pain to stay,
So there's only one thing left to do, kiss my forehead and say goodbye to your little Jane...
