To A Child
written by Star


your daddy never loved you
its okay, i dont think he ever loved anybody
but i would have
i would have loved you more than my own darkened soul
but you never gave me a chance
perhaps you were just too kind

there was never a sparkle as beautiful as all the things ive lost

what about me made you loathe me so
is my body not a safe home?
it wasnt me, it was him you were frightened of
so frightened that you had to leave
with no where to go
but i never would have let him breathe the same air as you
i would have kept you safe
