i will never understand, by waterlily Subscribe to rss feed for waterlily

i will never understand
the cruelty of your odd shaped hand
nothing will ever justify
all the tears my family has had to cry

i will never understand your meaning
of how you are leaning
nothing will ever explain
all the un-necessary pain

only you never cried one drop
since it was you that i could knot stop

only you had no heart ache
at the expense of immense heart break

i will never rationalize
how you must demonize
i will never contemplate
all your pent up hate

i will never understand
the severity of your basic stand
nothing will ever rectify
crushing my child as if she was a fly

i will never understand your grave intent
of how our lives had to be spent
nothing but God alone
could cut you down to the bone

only you never cried one drop
since it was you that i could knot stop

only you had no heart ache
at the expense of immense heart break

the meaning of my death shall be
escaping  you completely

i will never rationalize
how you must demonize
i will never contemplate
all  your pent up hate

let the death of two be on your head
when you stand before the good shepherd dead

the meaning of my child's death shall be
fruitless in a deep dark sea

i will never understand your grave intent
of how our lives had to be spent
nothing but God alone
could cut you down to the bone

all because i could knot love you fully
is the reason for your murderous bully

all because i could knot love you as you desired
our lives had to be expired

only you never cried one drop
since it was you i could knot stop

only you had no heart ache
at the expense of immense heart break
