Papa's Birthday Today

he was a day short for the day of the hearts
but he loved so well and gave himself all for mama

some fights may be on the usual domestic chore
but no physical abuse that was what i saw, the real score

born on the 13th, he lacked a day more
to complete the whole heart's picture

he died with a broken heart and he once broke many hearts too
but that that was long time ago
