trite, temperamental
let's forgive
the insecurity
beneath her smile

it's a given
we've neglected her again,
but we've her best interests in mind

she'll understand
the sacrifice we make (her take)
to keep her safe some day

she's such a precious thing,
we really love her so
really, but i wonder...

does she know?


(hold still darling, don't cry, just a few... more.... there, all better now, see? you didn't really want those wings, did you?)
