Mom Lost Her Little Author
Writing was a passion
Passion masked the nail
Your child’s way of life was writing
Mom’s little author she thinks
Mom boasts about the qualities of an author son
Mom doesn’t know there’s a nail in the picture
Your son is sitting,
Feeling the rusty nail pierce his brain
This nail is masked
Your son begs for aid in removing the nail
Mom ignores the begs
Mom tells child to toughen up
This nail eventually takes a toll to the child’s heart
The child begs to his mom
Mom ignores the begs
The child can’t deal with the pain
The nail is now taking full control
Mom ignores the begs
Mom opens child’s door next day
The nail just pinned the coffin
Now the mom listens
