This is a quick story of a sad life doing a good deed.
A baby is born
So beutiful and pure
But born in a field of corn
And has a disease that can't be cured

The parents work hard
To pay off the depts
Hoping to get a wild card
To quiet the dying babies fits

The baby survives its own birth
And lives on through its years
But in an orphanage it lives in the south
Because his parents running out of money was what they feared

He lived slow and steady
Getting good grades in school
But he remains depressed and unhappy
Becaused his medical condition makes him look like a fool

When he graduated
Many were glad
His parents were watching as he did
His final work for his college grad.

He lives through his life
Going through minimal wage
He thinks about stabbing himself with a knife
As he suffers from his own phage

When he was fifty two
He saved a baby
As the car came towards it, nobody had a clue
But he expressed his own sympathy
As god gave him just the cue

All have their own purpose that won't always be fun
Whether easy or tough
The hard part is getting it done
The difficulty of the job can be some pretty hard stuff
