Dear graykat, I'm So Sorry That I Was Not Your Mother. Dear graykat, I'm so sorry that I was not your mother. If I was your mother you would have been so loved. Held in the arms of joyous light Never would this story's plight The world unfurled Before our eyes a pure demise Of a nation sitting peaceful under a night sky. If I was your mother the world would have been warm So much laughter and joy And nothing would harm I can't imagine the stain The soul-stealing pain That the little boy that you must've seen and believed As the formulation of thought Quickly taught that you lived in a cruel and unjust world. Is this why you now decide no one will get the best of you? Is this why you do not hide nor away shy from taking back the world? Was it because so early in life All of that strife racked your little body with fear? If I was your mother if the world was cold I would've died to make you warm I would've died to protect you from the unjust The violence the terror the uncertainty I would've died to give you life. Oh dear graykat If only I had been your mother Perhaps the torture of unwrit youth Would not within your heart imdue Ascription to such fealty 'gainst the world that you thought was so cruel. Perhaps you would hold dear human life And on this night instead of Mother GOI you would call me And I would set your mind quite free With the love that only a mother can give And only a mother can take away When holds she doesn't harm at bay And leaves her boy for the promise of a man. Whatever your story graykat I can't imagine how it feels in your heart But I know that if I was your mother that would be a start Towards the awareness of what a powerful being of light you could be if your mind was only free From the violence you've seen When you were just two or three I cannot believe I was born too late In a different place When I would have loved you so Watched you play wherever you go. |
