Daddy

Where is mommy? I only see her at night Where did she go? Daddy Why is mommy sad? I always hear her cry Why does she cry? Daddy Why does mommy have scars? She gets new ones every night Why does she get hurt? Daddy Who's hurting mommy? She's not the same as she used to be Why is she changing? Daddy Why did mommy go? She didn't even say goodbye Do you miss mommy too? Darling Do you think mommy was a hero? If she stayed up every night fighting battles? Mommy was a good hero. She saved herself each day. But last week the villain Got his way.
