I will not leave
She is so strong
 and yet so fragile
 Survived the storm
 but crambled at a word
 of expectation in a language unknown
 Everything she's known is madness
 in a sense 
 I lost my innocence because of a mighty scream
 that could not have been held within
 any longer than she already withheld it
 And now the words are out
 loud and painful
 They are followed by a million of kisses and hugs
 I feel the love
 and I believe her
 
 And now it hurts
 to see her crumble
 And laugh through 
 teary eyes
 She doesn't seem to
 know her way around the jungle
 that seems to be inside her mind
 And I cannot save her
 and she will not listen to anyone else
 but the voice in her head
 It tells her lies about
 being alone and the best
 She knows no such thing is true
 but pretends it is, so all the rest
 will give up and leave her alone
 this time truly
 
 No mother, I will not
 I will stand right here
 through the sad song 
 about your life as
  an immigrant
