The Road I Took

Blame me for the road l° took Yes, you saw me walk through it But what else do you know A choice l° made while both eyes Suffered from glychoma But, l° did stare as far as l° could It is my choice Like a sail during a tempest But l° am no christ Did l° but have the luxury of choice Like a beggar l° wouldn't have chosen this part Where torn are my marbles Snakes, my children's dolls Scorpion my crayfish Blame me for the child l° have l° chose to be raped Who enjoys sex under assault and battery Blame me for being a convict l° wish l° didn't own that parcel of land That l° refused to sell to the Governor Blame me for failing that course l° should have slept with that lecturer l° wonder whether he has a daughter Blame me for dating a cougar My first class couldn't secure ?e the job I deserve good housing and accommodation too Blame me friend, for not believing in love l° have an irreparable heart How do you mend a broken glass? Blame me for being barren l° allowed my boyfriend push ?e into several abortions He said l° should do it, if l° love him Blame ?e for prostituting l° wish l° had parents or maybe that education was free My friend, always ask for the tale When you have heard the story
