I see the way your face lights up,
But I also see your fears.
The way you hurt when they mock you,
And those silent, sniffling tears.
-
A pain you must deal with,
When your curse isn't your fault.
Oh, how I hate it when they tease you,
Though I try to take it with a pinch of salt.
-
If only I knew what you'd go through,
Perhaps I would have considered.
And maybe if I knew what would happen,
This future of yours I could have altered.
-
Forgive me, my son
For this my selfishness.
Don't blame yourself,
For in this you are faultless.
-
Let me hold your precious body,
In my loving arms.
Let me protect you,
From any possible harms.
-
I'd sell my soul to free you,
From this which is your fate.
I'd die a thousand deaths,
But my sorrow is too late.
-
How I wish to scream at them
When they tease my little child.
How they mock the little "halfbreed",
It drives me simply wild.
-
I wish it could be,
Just you and I,
And never again,
Would I see you cry.
-
Forgive me my son,
For I don't have that power,
But let my loving heart,
Be your saving bower.
-
I wish you could see,
All the things you are to me,
Wish you could know what
When I look at you I see.
-
When I see your smiling face,
My heart fills with joy.
How I love to hold
My precious little boy.
-
So cling to me tight,
And dry your tears.
While you're in my arms you're safe,
From all of your fears.
