One more bed for the toddler,
Whole different world, it’s hers.
Put one more plate on the table.
But you can’t take back your words.
One more burden on your shoulder.
Whole new blessing looking curse.
Set one more scene for your debacle.
But now you cannot stop the hearse.
One less body, ‘cause it got colder.
Whole new sin in pouch, you’ll immerse.
One less lullaby, a night without fable.
But a life at its worst can’t be made worse.
One less flower in garden, moulders.
Whole new failure for you, and it’s first.
One less liability, proved you’re incapable.
But it’s a failed trial, you still can rehearse.
