My Mothers Wish

My mother always had a wish She prayed it would come true But with all the hurt and pain What can she do She prays for my brother She prays for my sister She prays for other But not herself She is sweet She is fragile She is the one who deserves The wish for a good life And this one time I want to be the one The one who prays for her For her wish to be true For my brother and sister come to God For my father to come to God For us all to be in heaven For all the world to be at peace So no child ever have to die So no mother ever had to grief So no father went to jail That is my mothers wish What can i do? I'm just a kid What can i do? I'm not like her I know though That she'll help me I know that Some day this wish will be true The wish will come to life The wish my mother wants My mothers wish
