-Torn-

Leafpool

When my kits were born

I felt torn

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I fell in love with crow from wind

And behind me I leave my sister, my family, my friend

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I don't know what to do

But I know what I should

/\/\/\/\/\/\

Instead, I lie

And watch as they grow up with her, and I can only cry

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I should have told

And because I didn't, I watch my life unfold

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I knew better

But thought I could hide the secret forever

/\/\/\/\/\/\

Now it's locked in my head

And I cry again

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I was wrong

And now they're all gone

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I sit now and weep

Until I cry myself to sleep

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I wanted to say sorry, but I wasn't

I made my choice and may pay for it

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I fell in love and don't see where it's wrong

Because the feathered tail said it was okay and I will stay strong

/\/\/\/\/\/\

So I will take the consequence

And in the pain, I shall find bliss

/\/\/\/\/\/\

Because they are mine

And if they hate me, that is fine

/\/\/\/\/\/\

Because I love them and they can't take that from me

Because one day they will see

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I didn't tell, so they could live a normal life

When I hid, I thought it was right

/\/\/\/\/\/\

So go ahead and hiss

Because one day you'll wish

/\/\/\/\/\/\

There was still a lie to hide behind

That way the truth can be seen from a different side

/\/\/\/\/\/\

My sister gave so much and has paid

And I hope the anger will fade

/\/\/\/\/\/\

Because it isn't fair

That she gets punished because she cared

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I still love the crow and I hope he will come back

But if he doesn't, courage is one thing he will lack

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I am sad

And I know what I did is seen as bad

/\/\/\/\/\/\

But I fought for love

And it wasn't enough

/\/\/\/\/\/\

I will end it here and hope my kits see

When there was a lie, they were free

/\/\/\/\/\/\
