He used to make me cry with his meaningless words
His uncaring postures and his unwavering stubbornness
I don't cry anymore I haven't since I lost my heart
But still my dry eyes ache with sorrow clenched shut
He could be a god among men if only he cared
But he doesn't see this world as I do, nor the people of it
I have wished only the best for him, but my harsh tones and bitter words betray me
He doesn't hear me anymore not for a while
He is truly a gifted boy, soon a man no less
I pray that he understands one day that I care more for him than I say
He deserves better, we all do though
This world isn't meant for those who love
Nor is it made by them, but we stay forever more
And our heart is lost all the while
Until my strength withers and my body fails me I won't leave him to be alone
I will find the way into his thoughts one day
Then he will understand
