Blame



I learned early

How to read a room

The way your silence cut and bruised

Love Was A locked door

Cold Handle

I searched for the key


You lived a lie

I Paid the rent

With all of the tears I spent

You said I was Stupid

You called me wrong

I Swallowed my tongue, stayed strong

Your gold crown....

Glass at home.


You wore your Halo For the street

Kept me crawling at your feet

You said I was weak

Said I was bad

Turned Your Child into something sad.


I hid my pain

I held my breath

I carried it like quiet death


You played the queen

I was the blame.

You burned my heart

To feed your name.


In the End

I'm the one you needed

You said sorry

Then your eyes closed.

I held your body

Till it was cold


I saw it

its true

you reap what you sew...
