cw: abortion and religious themes

i. ( flesh against bones gnawing one's own soul
decisions are iron-clad metal armour preventing your demise
guilt is a flickering light
vapid yet potent )

the unborn is a perforation of the heart/
the truth is sand on your mouth/
brace yourself for the impact/
the truth will hurt but your parents will understand /

they had you —
a mess, a disorder, a disaster of a daughter /
family will be a solace /
reputation and good names are nothing else/
pack your suitcase, just in case /

the unborn is a perforation of the heart /
the pills will taste like heaven went to earth /
feel your worries disappate /
he will anchor you in your hate /

love is a fickle thing/ destructible and bitter /
he's not carrying the baby so it's up to you to know better/
hire a baby sitter / you're just a beginner
you'll get there

madness is a broadened horizon with open gates /
but the truth slips through every crack of closed steel doors /
he will let you go and you will be no more /

( but the end will be a family
— albeit an unconventional one
and a clean conscience whispering,
you made the right choice )

this was a project for my values class (but idk i hate it)
