I can only change
what I can change.
I must leave the rest behind.

Disappointment and sorrow
must step to the rear,
or else I might lose my mind.

Whoever said that
life would be fair?
I've been dealt a nasty blow.

Blood is not so
thick and steady.
Families can split, you know.

Try running a dollar
bill through your veins,
and see how your brain reacts.

You'd be surprised
how quickly the change
of greed occurs and impacts.

I've always heard
that when someone dies
a family gets torn apart.

Well. take it from me.
It's true, and it's real.
And it will surely break your heart.
