A pro football player spoke today
you've heard of him, I'm sure

he spoke with words welded well together
and he said,

"my daughter's on the opposite side of never"
he put thought into that word

never

as in,

never going to watch her face brighten

never going to hear her sing

never going to hug her close

never

So now his daughter is gone
and he's on the wrong side of *never
