A Cup of Water

“A Cup of Water”

This one is really,

Hard to wright.

I want to make sure,

It’s right.

On Christmas Eve,

My Dad asked me to get him,

A simple cup of water.

But for the simple things the Doctors said let him.

So I said you need to do that yourself,

And he ended up falling and breaking,

His hip and is arm.

So I called my sister in alarm.

I could not get him up,

On my own.

He couldn’t get up on his own.

This is something I own.

He ended up in rehab.

Then got pneumonia.

And on my 50th Birthday.

He died.

I’ve tried to get it out of my head.

Heaven knows I’ve tried.

A simple cup of water.

I don’t know what to say.

I guess it doesn’t matter,

In anyway.
