Her Stomach Was Fat

Her stomach was fat
But her heart was small
She stood on the edge
Just waiting to fall
Her back was stabbed
And her feet lost balance
She began to smile
As she finally realized
Her body lay mangled
On the sheets of
They all just stared and wondered why
The last memory
Haunts us all
She’s on the floor
All black and blue
I can’t help but give the blame
All to you
