Child

Child get off that floor, off your knees

Child reclaim your power

His lies were your downfall

He clothed you with deceit

Moisturized you with his treachery

Why do you mourn his departure?

Pray tell who mourns the departure of a storm

One that raged and tore at you

Your tears watering the garden of his depraved being

You weep now for the man that plundered your worth

You honor the slime and scum of all things cursed

You weep now for the tide that lashed you

Bashed you against the rocks of unfulfilled love’

Child “Be Still” I command        

                  

Is that not the warthog that gored your heart?

That splintered your being to irreparable proportions

Child “Look at me”

Is that not the monster that stole your youth?

And deflowered your faith

Is that not him that left you lying in the gutters of broken promises?

Is that not him that smothered you with his sickening lies?

Child stop

Move On
