You Lost Her

 

 

Years ago you lost her

The moment you said

Your heart went to this new man

The moment you began

Avoiding the children born to you

Hiding us away

Like shameful secrets

In backrooms with old TV's

Letting the shadow

Of who we where

Be Known out of some good deed

To let him know

What he was diving into

The second you said

This man shall be father

When the first was only streets away

The first time your hand

Made contact with her face

You lost her

She gave up on you

Wondering should I have done the same

And saved us the pain
