Have you ever watched pain
Someone you would give your life for
Held them silently
While their heart bled
And their eyes weeped
Felt the shudders of the sobs
Wrenched from deep inside
Unfathomable depths, a wealth of hurt
Have you ever cursed a person
Had such ugly, evil thoughts
For the person or persons
That made the one you're holding
Feel this way
Wanted to strike out
Make the harshness they feel
Go far away
Have you ever felt useless
Helpless to do nothing
To ease their suffering
Wish to the world
To take it into you
Make deals and promises
Give up valued things
To make their pain stop
Have you ever loved someone so much
That their pain becomes your pain
Their joy your joy
Their anger your anger
Mother's do it everyday
