To the Family

By prodigy789

My only son
no more than one
let ye live on one once my life is done

and to my mother
like no other
i wish i could have known my brother

and for my dad
I know you're glad
but live without making me sad

and to my girl
you are my pearl
a gem within a dull, dull world

and to you all
if you ever call
my love for you will never fall...
