ALS Robbed My Daddy
The body slowly became useless
Slowly but surely he lost all function
Couldn't tell me he loved me
Wasn't able to ask how my day was
He wanted to hug me but his arms wouldn't let him
His hands wanted to play ball with me
I watched it eat his body alive
Yet his mind was left stay
So he knew exactly what was happening
What would you do if you looked into those eyes?
Knowing they were your eyes too
ALS robbed my daddy
