Christina

I see the pain that crosses your face.

The shame that follows, out of place.

Deep inside you try to hide.

Escaping the pleasure of pride.

I try to confide,

inside is an illusion.

A Reality that has been forced.

Coerced

You are worthy and worth more

Let me remove your pain

Your tears are all that remain.

Let them fall upon my shoulder

I hear the sobs, as I hold her.

Christina, dear

I love you without any fear

Tear by tear

sear your wounds

Let him die in your minds tomb.

The past has passed.

our future is coming fast.

With tiny legs and arms

helpless in a world that harms.

simple

Christopher needs you

as I do.

For always.
