Analysis of And the mothers are the ones who break my heart the most
And the mothers are the ones who break my heart the most
Those who do not cry so that the child does not panic
Those who hold shaking babies with two hands in the middle of the orchard in front of guns and shouts
The mothers are the ones who break my heart the most
Those forced to watch their babies burn alive
while they are being raped
Those who are crying at home and online are trying to get any information about their kidnapped daughters
The mothers are the ones who break my heart the most
I hear their cries at night
in the dreams
The mothers who will no longer be mothers.
