One Day Closer
Location
Waking up to selfish bliss
Unknowledgeable of the worst crisis
Hours passed, time went by
A knock and a note sent my angel to the sky
Violent crash, a quick pass, he nervously replied
Hand in hand, her daughters cried
With sudden sickness, a striking loss of hope
Three lost souls cut from their rope
Me, the newest of the three
Grew weak at the knees, I couldn’t help but plea
“Tell me it isn’t true; you know we need you”
Now more than ever, my childhood was through
Just yesterday we laughed at the same comedy
Now a broken family, left without harmony
Give me one more day, it’d cherish it
For memories fade, your heart in mine is always lit
Woke up to reality on the next,
If I wasn’t a believer, I’d seem to be hexed
Until a simple sweet saying, my mind pondered to
My last words, “Goodnight Mama, I love you.”
