Angel In Disguise
A woman had a child
The child was unexpected
The father wasn't happy
He did nothing but neglect it
The father up and left
After his little son was born
The mother cried in disbelief
Because her baby was deformed
The mother plead god with questions
Of why her son was struck with pain
Yet every time gods answer was
"You'd still yet more to gain"
She never understood those words
Till her son had finally died
The boy she raised to be a man
Was an angel in disguise
