Deception

We watched Mad Men,
Discussed the affairs,
Of our partners.

She was bleeding,
I rubbed my belly,
Prayed it would be,
Nothing like the others.

My mother said she
Would be moving in,
With my best friend,
So I could run away,
And live my life.

My boyfriend had long hair once,
The ghosts in his room,
They come and go.
They frighten me so,
I don't know why.
Just let it loose baby.

All the symptoms come,
Let it loose baby.
Just dream.
Know that everything will be okay.
The world will find its way.

My stepdad gambling,
My mother rambling,
My best friend trembling,
My boyfriend healing.
The doctor cries.
The spirit lies.
Nobody ever understands,
The child growing inside of me,
Just wants a chance.

I smoke this ciggerette.
Hope that I can quit in time.
The hours long they hang.
I love this family so.

The godmother will grow,
Into a lovely young woman.
We just drenched ourselves,
In the river of betrayel.
We walked the path,
Of broken glass,
Shards of crystals in the air.

Don't you see?
Don't you see?
Can you feel it coming?
Can you feel it coming?
Trouble stirring.

Footsteps.

Haunting us all.
I watch the old woman call,
She is angry,
With a white dress,
Of deception.

And the child tingles,
Deep inside.
As the minutes,
Just like animals,
Can hide.

Clock ticks quickly on,
Memories,
Create a new dawn,
Of reasoning.

Emotions quill.
One little pill.

Dropped the weapon on the floor.

Don't open the door.
Just let it loose baby.
I weaken.
Hold me close.
When I get home,
from prenatal care.

The moon is shining,
Way over there.
Wolves howling,
In the afterglow,
Murdered fools.

I smell the fire.
I love you.
Stay.
Please kid.
Stay.
