Sunday:

Dear Child,
Daily I peep
Through these dust-stained
Lavender widows blinds
They don't see me, but I see them
They which are me
Me of the past life

Their red cup
Once told my story
Their Louis Vuitton bag
once held my glory
and these eye bags
once beheld my folly

Monday:

Then came a tear from heaven
a blessing in disguise
a breath of fresh air
and of life.. my child

your soft voice rustle
across the cold retro apartment
as I sing slow songs of stress
sex and of tears

Tuesday:

I don't ever want no friends
I'm cool with Family
and you know what is
said about Family

It's not about Blood and
all that biological stuff
You get to choose your own family
and Family is Enough!
How beautiful is your family
if it's related by Blood

Wednesday:

Dear Child, say your prayers
Go to mass, Pray for Ma
These scars in my heart
they heal slow.. kumbaya
These pain in my heart
they implode.. kumbaya

cos your Smile so sharp
it stings
and the thing behind you
is a thing
Just like me, Just like Ma

Thursday:

Dear Child, don't forget this
stop when it's hard to think
There's no such thing as jinx
Depression comes in bits
Partners smell like fish
and Pampers smell Like shit!

Now go to sleep
Fridays are chill.
