Un-believable

I never dreamed it could happen to me

I always believed it was just make believe

I had everything, anything

One would want or need

--

Money seemed to grow in a forest of trees

Friends were always by my side

A lovely wife whom was eating for two

Then one day I gambled it all away

--

The money trees died

My friends left my side

The baby didn’t make it

My wife committed suicide

--

My mother once said

“Always take care of the things you love

because one day it could all be done”

I just never believed it would happen to me

--

Hopefully I can get everything back

Maybe then I will know

to never let those things go

Now, I do believe
