like a great and mighty storm,
you blew into this life, powerful and raw,
giving everything, baring all,
holding nothing back,
your fire burning brighter
than a million suns,
raging and blazing, somewhere just
beyond the edge of control,
but still, it was not enough;
you deserved better baby;
all you ever wanted was for
someone to understand,
someone to notice, someone to hear,
someone to hold you in the darkness
of the cold, black night,
someone to share just a small
piece of the lost and fading light,
instead they pushed you aside,
mocking and laughing,
voting you the ‘ugliest man on campus’,
spreading rumors and lies,
taking pieces here,
breaking pieces there,
using you up, until there was nothing
left to use;
you deserved better baby;
you should be watching your
grand babies grow,
holding them,
teaching them to sing,
sharing that incredible laugh,
baking cookies for Thanksgiving
and Christmas,
holding a good man at night,
saving the best for last;
you deserved better baby.
