In the shadows of cruel words and jest
You mocked her, put her to the test
Like Eeyore from tales of Pooh
You belittled her, her spirit you’d subdue
Her appearance, her life, you’d scorn
Reminding all of the day she was born
Her children, her weight, her sorrowful face
No kindness shown, no grace to embrace
Yet when she left, her spirit set free
You feigned sadness, a false decree
Her funeral, a stage for your own play
Her love unreciprocated, fading away
The one you criticized, the one you’d deride
Yet in her heart, love never denied
She saw beyond your façade of pain
Her love for you, a gentle rain
In the echoes of your careless jest
Lies the truth of a friendship put to the test
For she was the one who loved you true
In spite of the darkness, her light shone through
