This is one of those times
When i feel like crying
But i cant
She said she's leaving
Because her kids need a better mother,
But i could
Never
Imagine a better mom than her
Numb
is the feeling i have towards this situation
so tonight
The only tears i shed,
Are on this piece of paper,
Where the dry tears
Form words
