Good -Bye Sonny
Good -Bye Sonny
Sonny was the talk of the town
and when the neighbors passed by
they would so often frown
for Sonny was an outcast
one who would take, but never ask
He drank his Spirits from a flask
and couldnt deal with much of a task
Sonny's mom had to go out with a mask
because of all the questions
that the neighbors would ask
he wouldnt care if she shed a tear
or if her dress flew in the air
and he wouldnt care when the neighbors
passed by in order to stare
Now his mom's emotions were all spent
and to her name she had barely a cent
and she wondered of the length of her torment.
"How long will my torment last?",
"How much longer?"she' would ask
Then one day, she took that flight
and went toward that white light
that was so bright in her sight
just to end her day and finish off her night.
Good-bye Sonny
