A Prayer for Charlotte

I pray for you my Charlotte

I know you've not gone far

Hear my words of love for you

And the child that you are



I ask for your forgiveness

For I wasn't there

To save you from the darkness

That caught you unaware



I beg you pray for Mother

She knows not what she did

She drowned her soul in tears

When they closed the coffin lid



Tomorrow they condemn her

To the fate she suffered you

She won't die from beating

Like the one she gave to you



Mother will die quickly

It's what the jury says is fair

She'll be rested when she joins you

She'll be strapped into the chair
