Hail Mary
Filled with disgrace,
That man was with you.
Never letting tears roll down your face,
You wished to weep
As his hands touched your thigh,
But you must be his fragile sheep
As his fingers go inside
Your holy vessel.
_._._._._._._
Holy Mary
You pray to God
That a fertilized egg won’t nestle
In the sheets of your womb.
You can’t bear the child of a sinner,
But as he thrusts
You must
Lay silent in your room.
Your duvets wraps like a cocoon.
You shrivel from his hot breath
Now
And at the hour of your death.
_._._._._._._
Hail Mary
Just in case,
You take a test.
You fear
That little pink plus sign
And as the time comes near
Your heart
Beats out of your chest.
Ten more seconds.
Wait and see.
His child is with thee.
_._._._._._._
Holy Mary
A mother, by god
Of a bastard baby, leeching.
Outside, you wear a smile
As the lamb of god has gifted you with child.
But inside your soul is screeching,
Your faith is in shambles.
How could the lord let this man take your innocence and pride?
You pray for the sinner,
But you hope that he breaks
Under the weight of his sins,
Like the cracks in your over-stretched skin.
You hope his conscience makes him sick
Just like his child makes you
Every morning at six.
You hope he suffers, just like you
Now
And at the hour of his death.
