IN CASE THE DAY COMES MAMA...

Hold my hand mama...
I'm about to enter into the tunnel.
In case anything goes wrong,
Be the first to feel my cold hands.

Hold me tight mama...
I would be a liar to say I'm ok,
It is in such time as this I need most
Your prayers.

Hold me close mama...
I will be needing your hug
I'm sure in your arms,
I will find comfort.

Stay close mama...
Not to weep for me for I'm but a child,
But stay close to see everything,
And to tell them that I did try.

Someday mama...
Just one day mama...
I don't pray for it, but mama,
Tunnels are very suffocating.

If that day comes mama,
Be the first to tell
My tale
