The Lucky Home
A Poem by TTBoy
At the right time
your presence was made
Such a lucky home
many thought we were so blessed
Only it was you
and the life that was denied you
Our little girl
three years old and finding a piece of
paper worth seven million that you hid
caused a ruckus
and now you let no one else in
who is not worthy
Though they try to break us
you again protect what was yours
as only you could do in your now lifetime
Yet now we feel like prisoners
unable to move without you
unable to leave without you
There is life now where there wasn’t
before
Should we continue to stay
no one rests
Have you blessed us to curse us
Don’t let your death be in vain
Let us go and prosper as we
allow you to bestow this lovely pain
upon another inhabitant
Yet, how long will it take for you
to cross over into forgiveness
What will it take
Do you plan to let your murderers in
upon their return?
