Ignored to Death

Spit that taste like blood

Swishes around like waves

Crashing against a broken lip

As the broken heart

Crashes into broken ribs

He didn't lay a single hand

Yet caused destruction

By simply looking the other way

-

Starving to get your attention

Yet your duties weren't to nurture

Bleeding to get your attention

As teeth mangled lips

Yet your duties weren't to nurture

-

How long would you shut your eyes

As if turning to stone was true

When looking at the monster

That you chose to live with

That you chose to create

That you chose to raise

-

Days went by like bullets

Striking a stomach so empty

The fat started eating itself

Yet blind eyes will never see

Unless your pretending

To take on such an illness

Just to create another one

-

Caving in to bitter request

That was never given orally

Makes traps built for suffering

How can you apologize

When ignorant of what went wrong

Well this is wrong as bones hollow

-

They hollow to musical instruments

Ready to be played by a mortician

Then falling down the stairs

Stumbling into a casket already open

By none other than the father

Who cared so much

That his child didn't matter
