MUM AND DAD

So this is how it's going to be from now on 
Looking after my parents Christine and John
Mum has untreatable and uncureable cancer at the age of 72
Me, her son, not knowing what to do 

Dad is 86 and racked with pain
Once fit and agile now a slow moving train
This is hard for me to digest and take
Saying life goes on is a big mistake 

I will promise to the best I can 
To this lovely lady and caring man 
Life is very precious day by day 
For heartbreak like mine is never far away
