All my life I was left to sit and wonder
How life would be without a day of blunder
I learned what things looked like by the feel of it
So depressed at times I wanted to give up and quit
Having to carry a cane everywhere I would go
Bcuz the things that lyed before me were not shown
Hearing all the neighborhood kids playing outside
Left me feeling worthless without an ounce of pride
My mom enclosed me in her arms wiping away endless tears
Trying to convince me that she would always be there
I knew death would arise among all at some point in life
And being alone in this dark world left me searching for a knife
I Would sometimes ask my mom where my dad has ran off to
And She would say in a quivering voice “I don’t know boo”
That told me that he was not coming back anytime soon
And trying to find him is something my heart wont let me do
A year later on 4/19/2006 my mom suddenly became very sick
And that was when I realized she was next on heavens list
I said to my mom to go when he called because I would be fine
And this was when my life for once began to have a shine
We mysteriously received a call from a doctor concerning me
He said there was a possibility that he could give me a chance to see
When I told my mom the news she told me to believe in the plan
Next thing we knew after weeks of surgery it was all at the end
I remember the gauze being pulled away allowing me to see
Gradually more and more light began to rush all through me
The doctor said it was the light from the window glaring in
And I rushed to the room of my one and only best friend (his mom)
She was so sick at this point she could not move nor speak
I watched how the tears raced down her pale cheeks
And how her mouth twitched from trying to hold back her cry
We both knew what was soon to happen in both our lives
I held my mom close just like old times when I would cry
And told her how much I loved her and that I would be alright
I expressed to her that we had raced death far to long
And it was time to go where she belong and just like that she was gone
