Unspoken Love
In a little frame house on a corner
Lived a new teenage daughter;
Now having dates, picked up in a car,
Fear stalked her mother and father.
At dark the lights in the house on the corner
Turned on and stayed that way,
Then quietly turned off at midnight,
When the date’s dad’s car pulled away.
Safe at home, the daughter,
Took off her hand-sewn lovely dress,
And donned homemade pajamas,
Sweetly and safely to rest, to rest.
In the arms of her parents’ love.
