A Mothers Love?
How can a mother not hurt
when her child cries out in pain?
How can she turn and look away
when there's so much to be gained?
If only her heart would open
and let God show the way,
to happiness and love everlasting.
For this, I'll always pray.
Is it possible to just feel nothing
towards the child you gave away?
Please say there is at least a hope
that you will love me again some day.
When I look at my child I feel love.
I could never turn my back.
But you never felt that way towards me.
Is it something that I lack?
