A Butterfly Afterlife✧

...

You listened to all they said,
All the disgusting things,
That I was dead,

They said I was a zombie,
Living in the uterus,
And you nodded along,

They said I was forbidden,
And I would be forgotten,
And you said yes,

They preached, and they sung,
And you sang along,
To their game of filth,

I thought you were different,
But you were like her, like all the rest,

I never had someone proper,
Now I just saw,

You were too late,
Now you're dead to me, father.
