Okay I Simply Watched As My Father Raped My Girlfriend
ERRANTLY ERRANT
There once be a pair
They met in a park
In the darkness of despair
And suddenly a spark
But an errant flame this would turn out to be
Alas, a lady’s lad and a lovely lass to see
‘twas on a night two wouldst come to agree
Each wouldst agree to walk on hot rocks and shattered glass
Oh the sharpened shale of depth be its goal
Leaving their blood as a trail leading them nowhere
And oh the innocence and illicit they agreed to bear
Yet neither made naked their better judgment nor fear
Each pair of eyes focused on a flickering lamp
Two minds beset by a weakened shoulder and a "should or shouldn’t they?"
And there midst a misty eve so damnably damp
Was a nighttime which would earnestly earn its paltry pay
And so they rose to stroll somewhere both knew little of
by blindness and bastardized belittlement the two were spurred
No, this kinship was not based on everlasting love
But rather both died of dope is the story I heard
