A child sleeps on the thoughts of family
With a mother gone, devoted her life to drugs
a sister runs away with the fear of a life in her womb
a brother whom was never known
and a father with children of his own

I only wish to have my own
high to the heavens and built on our Mother Earth's firm arms
My love and I will establish our own

I often wonder if they think the same
and miss me as much as I do them
or think of the sweet memories that were once real
one day
maybe we could join
and be glad in it
for that is family


-the good you do today
people will often forget tomorrow
Do good anyway
