Here is a girl, drowning in tears. The moment had come that confirmed her fears.
One phone call,
That's all it took.
She wanted to live,
She was going to be a cook.
All her dreams crushed,
She's too scared to even cry.
She didn't want to go.
She didn't want to die.
The doctors just told her
Her tumor had gotten bigger.
Heavy sobs now wracked
Her tiny, frail figure.
The cancer's taking over,
Ending her short life.
She wanted to get a job,
Be a mom and a wife.
In around three weeks,
Her life will have ended.
Her heart was officially broken,
Unable to be mended.
So she decided,
To just sit back and wait,
For the tumor to grow
To enter Heavens gate.
Three weeks have passed,
It's her time to go.
She died quietly,
Without much of a show.
Her parents soon buried her,
Under her favorite tree.
For she had told them
It's the place she would like to be.
Now they are forced
To tell their daughter goodbye.
They bid her farewell,
And tried not to cry.
With one last, long glance,
Her parents walked away,
Leaving their daughter
Forever asleep in the clay.
