The little girl looked at her mom
She wrapped her little arms around her
She seemed unwell constantly
Always going to hospital
Her mom tried to stay calm but tears rolled freely

The little girl's dad was in a foreign country
He's been gone for many a year now
He always rang and checked on them
But the girl's mom was her world
Now she was stricken

Her Dad was in a dilemma
Whether to come back and look after his family
Or stay and make money they desperately needed
Money they needed for his wife's treatment

The little girl always said a sincere prayer
A simple request to God
That her mom be well again
Her parents joined her quietly
With solemn hearts
They also hoped for a miracle
Just for little girl's sake
May she enjoy her mom's company a little longer
May be a lot longer
Because at moment, it felt like the walls are closing in

Am far too gone
Irretrievably gone
I know it's been a week
Since you asked to leave
Now, you want to come back
That's lot of water under the bridge now

You ask
"Am I that easy to forget"
I wish I could say that
Moving on quickly was my only option
My sanity you see
I needed to clear my head quick
Else I will lose me

Anyways .... how're you
It's been a week 😪

Wigs
I hate them,
Oh boy! I loathe 'em

Don't start me on lifts
What lie
A cheap lie

You see, she got herself brand new twins
The ol' ones had deflated
These ones are real *******
What an illusion

Forget the hardware
I care about the software
Who you are on the  inside
That's who I wanna see

🐈 Cats
Oh boy you got love 'em
Them majestic beasts
They don't have owners
They have servants

Loyalty, that's dog's ****
It's over rated
Them cats know better
They're their own masters

They scratch you 'til you love 'em
How can you not love the purring
Rub them right you might see tail wiggle
But don't get too excite  
Breaking hearts is what they do

Last night I used my tool
I left you in a pool
You flooded like the nile
Coz I hit it in style
You moaned and some more
I kept hitting the core
Leaving you reeling
Reeling in unforgettable feeling
Ecstasy and fantasy rolled into 1
You kept at it,but you lost
Because from pillar to post
You fought... you lost !

Oh ye !
What have you done today
Did you till , or sleep all day
Now you seek bread
Laughable

Aye ! I want bread
I hunger
Last night I did not shut my eye
My tummy grumbled without end.
I need bread

Sorry, I got nuthin' to offer
I told you 'ere
You got to earn your bread
Look at you now
What a sad sight
