Guilt And I Had A Break-Up!
Is your womb tight?
Suffocating from the vices of Guilt and Shame?
Well ‘chile’… Guilt and I had a break-up
And Shame?
He don’t live here no more
I gave him the door!
Guilt was an arranged marriage
Forced upon me
Raped me of my innocence
Stole my virginity
Tarnished my purity
Guilt lied to me
Told me I was dirty
In the midnight hours
So I took a million showers
Told me I was an ugly disgrace
So I painted my face
Told me I was worthy of no man but him
Again he lied
I proved him wrong
And had an affair on the side
With Shame
Shame and I had an abusive relationship
Repeatedly he hit me in the womb
With blows of tension
His blows left scars like tumors
Lining my precious uterus
Leaving no more room for anything else
I tried to take a breath
But my stuff was all crowded
Things where like too tight
Suffocating
Trying to breathe…
I called upon the Goddess of the Lake
Gasping for breath…
I asked her to release her powers so that I may be relieved
But she only presented a mirror
So I looked
Reluctantly
In my reflection was a womb
Embracing Guilt and Shame…
So tightly that there was no more room left for…Love
I needed Love
Had to have her
Wanted her back in my life
So I grabbed the knife and pointed it at Guilt’s jugular
Well…Guilt, got the message and Shame?
He got the message too
They both flew
Still I wasn’t through
Again I called upon the Goddess of the Lake
Suddenly appeared a snake
Dancing me into a trance
Spun me around
Blew in my ear
I fell to the ground
An un-expecting visitor appeared
Joy consumed my body
And oh boy
She never felt so good
I asked if she would
And she melted the scars from my womb
Finally making room…
For Love
