Life...
Life is a game
But never fair
So take no shame
And never care
Friends and family around
She’s lying in bed
Everyone surrounds
She seems dead
We all weep
Everyone leaves
I take a peep
Mom wipes tears on her sleeve
I go in to help
I sit by her side
I hear a slight yelp
My brother hides
Grandma lies there
She can’t talk
My mom cries there
My dad stalks
Put my arm around mama
She sat there scared
A lot of drama
But I only cared
Wish I could do something
While mom cries
My heart cracking
I felt like I was the one that dies
Dad calls me
But mom needs me
All I can do is see
But I have to agree
Now I wait
For mom to leave
It’s up to fait
Dad and Mitch grieve
Mom walks out
I look in
She cries in a shout
With a big sad grin
All heads down
Everyone sad
Mom with the biggest frown
And I am mad
Now we are gone
We are in the car
Nothing can help, not even brawn
But grandma is the real star
