BOND

 

In an instant you were gone

Taken from us by another’s selfishness

He was too drunk to walk

So, he drove instead

Devastation left in his wake

The children want to know why

I don’t have the answer

They look to me for a reason

They look to me for strength

They cling to me out of fear

The fear of losing me too

But they must be my reason

And they are my strength

And I cling to them out of fear

The fear of losing them too
