mother, you looked away from the road
to comfort me
as the tears streamed down my face
a second is all it took
you swerved and turned
losing control
and we rolled down the hill
mother, your screams scared me.
if only i wasn't so sad
you wouldn't have to comfort me
maybe we'd be okay
if i had only believed it before
i'm sorry, mother.
