A Devil Child
An abomination,
A sin they say,
Your only child,
In your womb,
Growing everyday,
Kicking and moving around,
The child struggles,
With hearing nothing but screaming sounds,
Giving pain to you,
The site of red eyes,
The demon inside of you,
Making fire to extreme,
On the inside,
Praying for demon to be gone,
Praying for sins to disappear,
Feeling if theres any hope left inside you,
Born naturally,
No drugs to ease the pain,
Thinking things are better now,
But nothings set it stone,
Yet all contained,
Trapped inside this young one,
A devil foreseen,
What do you do,
If none of this is a dream?
