As the mother lay trapped upon that bed the doctor says she's dying.

And the father sits trapped inside his head he prays the doctor is lying.

In spite of the comforting words he said that old man's heart is crying.

But amidst the terrible news of dread no one noticed the child spying.

No one saw her run away to cuddle her old dog.

No one saw depression come to cover her like a fog.

No one saw her smile darken or her eyes turn grey.

No one saw that she was slipping, slowly fading away.

They thought that she was happy with no reason to be sad.

They thought she was a fighter, tough just like her dad.

Now we'll dig two graves one right next to the other.

And that poor man had to bury his baby and her mother.

Now he walks around empty, never to find another.

No heart on earth will beat for him as it did with his lover.

He wanted to love them always and be with them forever…

Soon he will join them both…he ***** back the lever…

BANG!
I've been cleaning my house and i found an old poem. It's kinda sad but good i think.
