I can hear you crying
heard your mothers dying
know you're going to miss her
still have a chance to kiss her
hear you screaming "don't go"
sad to know you're so sad
I have no words that you
have not heard so I'll just
sit Shiva watching television
telling you to eat something
you say you don't want nothing
quietly knowing I should
comfort you somehow but
don't know how the two of you
were close I don't know what
that's like my mother was always
distant even now she seems cold
but it's not about me my moms
still here and your mothers
slipping away maybe I'll
know how you feel one day
or maybe not I love my mom
but our bond is not a knot
more like a loose thread
fallen from worn out fabric
I know you miss the love
she gave you something
I never had not sure if I'm
the right person to give you comfort
I can't comprehend your tears
maybe I'm too stuborn inside
childhood rejection did something
to me inside don't know what
I would do if my mother died
one thing for sure I will not cry
why? because she always
forbade me too do so
