Mother Of Sadness

Mother Of Sadness

By Paul McCann

Mother of sadness

You know the feeling

of seeing someone you love

being punished .

Mother of sadness

Ask you son to fill the spaces when I feel      

Empty and unreached   .

Mother of sadness 

You know the loneliness of silence

And the hurt that dwells inside .

Mother of sadness

Help me to close my eyes

and bury the feelings that I can’t hide .

  Mother of sadness 

Even though you suffered in silence 

You were able to forgive .

Mother of sadness 

Help me to carry on and to love again .

and help me to live .
