Beauty N Words
I gave it to you willingly,
yet you stole it just the same
like a thief in the night, a coward slinking
through the darkness with my lost innocence
and shattered dreams
With no conscience, no second thought
just another notch on your belt
a story to tell the boys
Now while my belly swells with the result of my
foolish naivete
You move on to your next target
the next silly romantic innocent
who'll lay on her back and spread her legs
in a foolish attempt to prove
she loves the unlovable
But nonchalantly you roll on
leaving a trail of heartbreak
and bastards
like a parade leaves behind confetti
But I pity, the pitiless
because you have not been taught
the true measure of a man
Any fool can spill his seed in fertile ground
But only a man will harvest what he has sown
