Assistance

What could I do?
Can't turn down
your grandmother
on
her
deathbed.
Well...
What could I say?
Of course I would promise her
Anything she
asked
of
me.
Well...
How would I know?
I'd spend my whole life
Waiting for her
Waiting
to
meet
her.
Well...
Little did I guess
I would only assist
Only offer assistance
This, after all,
is
her
life.
Well...
I always saw myself playing a larger part.
Never was I the assistant
Existing only
to
assist.
Well...
What would I have told her?
If I'd known I would devote my life
To telling a small girl
her
life
mission.
Well...
Is that where it ends for me?
Only the assistant
Here to assist
here
to
help?
Well...
Is that who I am?
Only
she
can
say.
