****** With A Needle In Her Arm
****** with a needle in her arm,
yellowing skin of liquid poison,
a shadow once of a man's daughter,
Pride he wishΒ he still had & knew.
The cradle that rocked the baby
throttled the life out of her,
she's now thick of crocodile skin,
but she's bleeding so within.
The chaos of her disruptive sleep,
Happy when she gets a ****** treat.
Her **** rapes her as she sleeps,
its been a long time since she's wept
The needle crawls like a spider sometimes,
& like a child's fairy-book story,
the numb comes with a sense of calm.
Dead before ambulance arrives.
Revised with quite a few changes. Not posted to HP before.
