My Mother and I

The rain pounds on the glass like the pounding of my chest
I wait for your arrival, praying it is just a test
A thunderstorm is on the way, the roads are unsafe
I sit on the couch and look out the window, praying that you are safe
The phone rings, I jump to my feet and rush to pick it up
The guy says you have been in an accident, there was lots of blood and stuff
The tears now stream down my face like the rain on the window
You are now at the hospital and I must find some way to go
I need to know you will be alright, that you will not leave me here
With you gone, my life would end, I would not last a year
I get a ride and rush to your side, to see you in terrible pain
I tell you that you will be alright as you tell me about the train
It came on full speed, and, hard it struck, leaving you in a ditch
For you to heal, to grow, to live, that is my only wish
Hours pass as I wait alone, praying that God will save you
Soom the doctor arrives, and begins to tell me the terrible news
You've left me here now, gone to a better place
The doctor holds and comforts me when she sees the pain on my face

I have to live with daddy, he treats me real bad
Why did you have to die, you made me so sad
My friends do not seem to care, they do not ever try to help
They do not see it in my eyes that whay I do need is help
I lost the strength to go on, I hope they will miss me when I am gone
Boom! I pulled the trigger, and come face to face with my mom
She says that she loves me, and I love her so much
I told her that I could not live with dad, he had lost my trust
So forever I spend, with my mother in heaven
It is so sad, I had to die, and I was no older than seven
