Why...

[deedee102901]

She was with child and didn't seem to care
pretty brown eyes and a long black hair

she loved to smoke on the pipe everyday
She would get the crack any kind of way

The story goes. she was smokin' in a crack house
She didnt care when across her foot ran a mouse

Then suddenly she felt the pain of birth
She dropped her pipe, she didnt know what was worse

Would she stop or maybe scream
Oh no, she wanted to finish what was on her screen

She left the room with pipe in hand
thinking this wasnt part of the plan

Her water broke, it flooded the floor
And still she asked if she could have some more

The others heard the baby's cry
then silence... did the baby die?

She came out. She didn't want to quit
She asked someone for a hit

The police burst through the door
She was bleeding lying on the floor

A policeman heard a faint cry that was very near
The baby was alive the policeman shed some tears

The baby girl lay in the dirty sink
How could this happen, was all he could think

The mother died the next day
At the grave her mother prayed for grandaughter to have a better day

She looked into the baby's big brown eyes
Why did she do it? Could someone tell me? WHY??!!??
