we hover today in the sunrise
for death cannot touch this love

to reach eternity, they bear children
nourishing, wasting their own bodies
in sleepless nights, worry, love

their devotion counts the stars
sweet appeal, prayer
wise words that heal our wounds

beyond our bruised horizon
their smiles illuminate our worlds

without them
