No matter how much you tryÂ
to protect your children,
they will eventually experienceÂ
their own pain.Â

Jodie Morrison
Â
As your mother,Â
I may not be able to takeÂ
all the pain for you but,Â
as long as I am able.Â
I will take as much as I can.
Â

Frankie Crabtree
Â
Come to me with your burdens dear
She whispered as she held me near
Mama take this pain away
In your arms is where I want to stay
Little was I aware
That every ache she took from me;
was one more for her to bear. Â
Â

Tina Bell
Â
I feel your pain 10-fold child,Â
as it was me who triedÂ
to stop it from happening.

Â
Every time you were hurt,Â
she was there hurting seven times more,Â
by just seeing you suffer.Â
And wishing she could take the pain away.Â
Because she loves you

Sunny Marie
I embrace my inner child.
How innocent she was,Â
even with that first wound!Â
Although, I’ve endured much more pain,
I remember.
Â

Nirekshitha Kunder
Â
No matter how muchÂ
I protect you my dear!Â
The pain will surpass me I am clear.Â
Time to tell you, my little girlÂ
that the world won’t be fair.Â
Everyone has got to take their pain’s share!
 But don’t you fear, for in youÂ
I can see the birth of anotherÂ
indomitable woman near.

Â
Hold on tight, till you feel alright.
There are more battles to be won,Â
my little one
Let me show you what love is like,Â
even if the world is out to strike.

Â
You can’t safeguard someone always.
As you safeguard them,Â
they grow up naive and innocentÂ
and when they experience a bitter reality,
it will be too hard for themÂ
to accept the pain.
Â

Sulekha Pande
Â
The world’s a cruel place,
come my child,
to the warm embrace,
the first wound
is the hardest to bear,Â
I know it well,Â
child, I’ve been there.

Unresolved traumaÂ
is passed downÂ
unless it’s interruptedÂ
by change.
