Dear mother, sister, friend
Another one of my practiced villanelles

 Dear mother, sister, friend
Please don't cry, don't weep
I'm here for you, by your side

What can I do to help?
How can I make you smile?
Dear mother, sister, friend

I know you're wounded, hurt
I love you, I care about you
I'm here for you, by your side

You can push and shove me away
Kill yourself slowly with alcohol 
Dear mother, sister, friend

You can't run away forever
Don't let your fears control you
I'm here for you, by your side

I will not give up on you
I know you're strong inside
Dear mother, sister, friend

Many have shattered your spirit
Many have made you feel like dirt
But I'm here, by your side

You are an angel crafted from God
He will guide you through it all
Dear mother, sister, friend

The thunderstorm brings rain
But the sun will dry it up again
I'm here for you, by your side

Don't lock yourself in this cage
Fight! You'll soon be free
Dear mother, sister, friend
I'm here for you, by your side
