Familiar Martyrs
Suffering hardship means having faith
Persecution suffer-ers
That only hurt for hurting's sake
Lost all faith in their mothers
Trying to caretake suicide
Stretches child boundaries
And creates baggage hard to hide
When disclosure's a disease
For children let down by safety
Caring helps anxiety
And when your help is not wanted
Then self esteem starts bleeding
Accepting sex when wanting love
Needing a man to parent
Fooled into repeating schemas
Familiar found for martyrs
