"leprosy Utah"

my seed came to me with a bump on his face and ask why we both had the same on our faces and why it had showed up over night? lie to the child lie for heavens place lie, and never tell him the truth of hate spin a not knowing so he will think every things alright but in my own eye the fear spilled out the shame of what has happen to his face the shame of knowing i failed to keep the fallen from my door the shame
