DIRT ON MY BOOTS
Dirt on my boots
dust on our love
dark clouds on the horizon
forbodings of bad things to come.
I slept with your sister
and the results of our sin,
a split in two,
is dust on our love.
I buried the cat,
you murdered with the car
it was meant to be me
dirt on my boots.
You kicked me out of the house
to wander the woods
desdained by you
dark clouds on the horizon.
I made a mistake
now I am soaked with rain.
