Author's Notes: I wrote this after reading the 'Sacrifices' series by LightningontheWave. It just wouldn't go away.
As I sit and watch you sleep,
My heart too heavy with sorrow to weep,
I cannot fathom how,
They do not love you now,
As you truly sacrifice,
Your soul, your very life,
For all those around you.
My heart too heavy with sorrow to weep,
I cannot fathom how,
They do not love you now,
As you truly sacrifice,
Your soul, your very life,
For all those around you.
They gather strength as yours fails,
Powering their dreams as wind to sails,
And I wonder how,
They cannot love you now,
As you rest,
Against my chest,
And my arms surround you.
Powering their dreams as wind to sails,
And I wonder how,
They cannot love you now,
As you rest,
Against my chest,
And my arms surround you.
Fools to think that they will win,
That this mummer's farce will end,
If they cannot understand now,
That they should kiss your brow,
And thank you for all you've done,
Instead of tossing you to the ground,
And have your power bound you.

As I sit and watch you die,
I stifle the urge to cry,
For as you go, so will I,
Unable to understand why,
They cannot love you now,
Nor comprehend how,
You lived for those around you.
