Cake Anyone?
A four-layered cake,
Is what I am to you.
Bit by bit, slice by slice,
If you continue to take from me,
What will be left for my birthday boy?

For I have no choice,
But to be versatile for you,
A wedding cake for a wedding,
Another for a milestone too.
But no birthday cake for my birthday boy?

A chocolate cake for your sorrows,
A comforting delight to try,
Strawberry cake for your sadness,
To make it all feel right.
Red velvet for your love,
Passion frosted with grandeur,
But no vanilla cake for my beautiful birthday boy.

Like children at a party,
The last slice I hold,
You vie for a piece
And you continue to take from me, bold.
Still, nobody can be seen with a cake for my birthday boy.
