We Belonged
My sister, mother, and I belonged... together
She, she belonged to us
My child's mind splintered when told
My angel mother was not anointed
My child's mind couldn't comprehend
No angels or demons came to claim her
She was a woman completely incomplete
A tapestry of talents to wrap myself in
She didn't hang the moon, she swung from it
Softly on a swing crafted by woodland fairies
Whose kitsch houses she made as a child
Georgia red clay flowed through her veins
Coursing when catching creek salamanders
Under the watchful eye of her stick horse
My sister and I fell asleep to her lullabies
Sung by her gentle voice rivaling chimes
Rocking us as she swung above the world
We, we belonged to her
We, we belonged to each other
Until
The disease ripped us apart
Dragging her where we couldn't follow
Our mother... lost to us; in rapids
We watched helplessly from the shore
Waiting for her return
A return that would never come
We, we belonged... together
She, she belonged to us
My child's mind splintered when told
My angel mother was not anointed
My child's mind couldn't comprehend
No angels or demons came to claim her
She was a woman completely incomplete
A tapestry of talents to wrap myself in
She didn't hang the moon, she swung from it
Softly on a swing crafted by woodland fairies
Whose kitsch houses she made as a child
Georgia red clay flowed through her veins
Coursing when catching creek salamanders
Under the watchful eye of her stick horse
My sister and I fell asleep to her lullabies
Sung by her gentle voice rivaling chimes
Rocking us as she swung above the world
We, we belonged to her
We, we belonged to each other
Until
The disease ripped us apart
Dragging her where we couldn't follow
Our mother... lost to us; in rapids
We watched helplessly from the shore
Waiting for her return
A return that would never come
We, we belonged... together
