He Was Crippled

Folder: 
my poems

he was crippled

but you couldn’t tell from the outside

he was dying but you wouldn’t know

you were to busy to see him in pain

all you can do is run away

but he knows that you need to work

it’s only you and him

so he knows that you can’t be there

it doesn’t bother him

he loves you as he should

your all that he’s got

his dad left when he knew

when you told him that you were pregnant

away he flew

so now it’s just your little boy and you

he cries at night

he wishes to die

maybe things will be better for you

you would need less money

you could have a life and maybe a guy

so for now he sits and cries

just wishing he could take the blade and die
