Set adrift in an ocean of endless pain and torment
Captive to the memories of a love once lucent
Corrupted by the cruel hands of time
How could I have believed that anything would change
Was loving you ever a crime?Isolated in this lonely dungeon
Torn apart from cronies and kin
Nothing matters more than the child I carry within
A seed of hope, conceived from sin
About to be yet another victimDrowning in a well of mixed emotions
Trapped in an abyss of my own creation
Sinking deeper into depression
My sanity devoured by desolation
Crushed in spirit by overwhelming sadnessI lay there lost in thought, unaware of your presence
Unable to acknowledge your words with immediacy
Fuelling yet again your fury
Brought back to consciousness by your brutal fist
Warm blood dripping down my thighs as it all goes darkAwaken to the sound of machines beeping
Submerged in excruciating pain
Stripped off my remaining happiness once again
What more do I have to live for?
Now my unborn child is gone
