Nothing in her temper showed
That when he came home that cool spring day
She would take his life away
Those cruel, cruel fists
Those merciless kicks
They destroyed his body
But he cried for nobody
He fell to her feet
As his heart fought to beat
He was beaten by that beast
But the pain didn't cease
At 11:34
His life was no more
The pain disappeared
As did the fear
For that innocent little boy
By the time the sirens came
It was clear who to blame
His life was cut too short
Hi mother sent to court
I watched from the side
Unwilling to cry
I hoped they'd give her life
For killing that night
What'd they give her maybe?
For killing her baby?
10 years but a while
Not nearly enough, for taking away his smile
