a dark day…
I lost him at the mall,
Why did I buy that dress?
Why did he need that game?
I didn’t need this stress…
I lost my kid’s address,
I nearly peed my pants,
We didn’t have a drill,
He didn’t stand a chance…
My panic-stricken search,
Would be a fruitless quest.
I felt the rising shame,
I’d failed the basic test.
I lost him at the mall,
I was a crumbling wreck,
Right then, he reappeared…
Right there, I wrung his neck!
