Rescue Me

Did you grant me life to be one thing

That of a lady..

To bite my nails and twinkle my toes.

Thoughts of glass

Crystal

Diamond rings

Someone mother 

The baby cries with a dirty diaper

Wanting to be feed.

Eyes all drooped

My dress is torn with house shoes on

My hair looks like heck

I want to curse but instead I laugh

I called my brother to get a small

Loan

“Man it’s hard”

Know diamond rings

Know crystal glasses

All I see is plastic cups

Dirty diapers

Hanging here

Suspended in time

Hoping for some type of

Miracle.
Just to rescue me from

All this drama..
