Lifeless Dreams

Dreams of a fetus shattered
Your bitter hate 
Praying for its demise
Dancing for rain
Cutting the umbilical cord that brings you life

Dead inside
Just a forgotten carrion
Left in the battlefield
Mourning the divorce of your sanctity

Suicidal dolls, disguised as love
Begging for death
Swallowing my fate 
Consigned by you
