candles

they say i was too young to remember
but i still recall her last december
when she'd chase me through the house
we'd cuddle up and watch mickey mouse

she said she had to leave to visit a friend
but little did i know that it was the very end
cuz in reality she had to go to the doctor
and that was when her story became over

and after a few week went by
i turned three
but all i did was cry
cuz she wasn't next to me
i now i should be able to handle
all of the grief
but she wasn't there to blow out the candles
with me
