Inheritance

He Didn't Want To Be Alone Here.
I'd Forgot This, This Was Once My Home
As My Father Passes In Two Years.
I Touch All The Wood Left In The Workshop
Yet All Has Been Sold By My Brother
While I Was Getting Over A Girl
Before She Cries It Might Be Mine

The Cracked Kitchen Tile,
Gum Between Couch Cushions,
Rusted Trampolines Being Blown Away
And Changing Hands In Neighbours Fields.
All Was Mended For It's The Right Thing To Do
While A Full Tank Of Gas Brought Me Alone To Fatherhood
Rocking In A Chair He May Have Built
