Abortion Pill
I heard she writhed and cursed all night
I heard she whined and complained about her chest feeling tight
I heard her mother whispered to her until daylight
Promising her child's that it'll be alright.
Until she was gone
Stopped fighting for her life, she was done
They told me she had loved better
They said you promised to marry her later
Funny,
I refrained from mentioning that you once promised that to me
At the back of my mind a voice keeps whispering "that could have been me"
Had I not jumped ship,
Sacrificed at the alter of love I could have been that sheep.
Now I'm caught at a hard place
Don't know if I should be thankful that I'm safe
Or cry for the life that probably took my place.
