I try to stop my sobbing
I try to stop my cries
I just can’t stop believing
I’ll never see those eyes.
As I lie here desolate
As tears spill from my eyes
A thousand knives bite my chest
I hear my baby cry.
I can’t believe I listened
I put my baby to the knife
I can’t stop with thinking
‘Did I really take a life?’
Now I’ll never see those eyes
Those ten fingers and toes
I’ll never see my baby walk
Or laugh, or play or grow.
That was my choice then
A whole ten years ago
If only I had really known
That the pain would never go.
