Bom bom
Bom bom
frantic beats in the dark of the night
no light
in sight. my heart beats
Bom bom
Bom bom
Bom bom
take me away fairy duster of thoughts
with your promises of
fairy tales and god mothers
with wands. my heart beats
Bom bom
Bom bom
Bom bom
quickens. the footsteps in my ears
echoes through my head
the dread
of a life of shouts, terrors, drained beer bottles
with napkin coozies.
Bombom
Bombom
Bombom
my heart beat quickens.
i won't be you with your needles and your lines
and your maybe next times
your promises and failures
your ***** *** 60 dollar trailers.
i'm not your ***** OR your daughter
not your plastic little dolly
i ain't here to give your life a reason
to help you pass the seasons.
i'm a woman, a mother,
not a **** under covers
i'm no coward or saint
with every gosh **** word I paint
a reason, a rhyme
a purpose for time
to escape your thumb
your legacy
your guilt and tragedy.

Bom bom
Bom bom
Bom bom

My heart beats a drum
Like the wings of a bird
Carrying away the pain of yesterday.
My heart beats.
