That's When She Cried

That's when she cried, Tears flowing down her ckeeks she asked why Is my only son paralysed? Why is this happening to me i'm so traumatised. I had dreams of feasting on chicken and rice, Now my dreams only come down to porridge and tripe, To tired of darkness i wanted a light, Just a tiny drop of a moment with something nice, Lamentations of a heart that felt nothing right, Weepings of a soul that saw nothing good with life, Took a peep through the window and saw her son, Tears filled her eyes, That's when she cried.
