Abortion Of A Twin

Two people in my head
One alive but the other is dead
The sweet voice of love no longer I hear
The voice of destruction this I fear

The sound of one heart beat but there should be two
But I still feel so close to you
I move My arm and feel him near
Is he alive? I am filled with cheer

I lay inside my mother’s womb
Feeling that it is a tomb
God help me to survive
To be born, live, and thrive.

LISTEN TO ME

I steer into the distance
Looking at nothing and feeling nothing
My blood runs cold
My heart feels old

Death lies before me
Life is passing me by
A tear stained cheek
As I start to cry

Yet no one sees the tear
No one feels my fears
Why oh why this is what I shout
From my mouth nothing comes out

Listening now I hear the machine
God is this a dream
It's like a heart beating fast
Like a voice from the past

Now I see them looking at me
Looking down what do the see
My body weak but my mind is clear
God oh god this is fear

There hand to the switch
Their turning it off
The darkness comes
And I am lost

Is this a coffin?

I open my eyes
Seeing nothing but black
Laying very still and on my back
Turn my head to the left and then to the right
God I see nothing there's nothing in sight

I feel cold and empty what's happened to me
Screams within me why can't I see
I move my hand upward strange what's this I feel
This feeling of hardness so close to me head
God help me I'm in a coffin they think I am dead

I scream out loud but no one comes
The sound of my heart like sound of drums
Panic inside me but I cannot move
God I am so scared what should I do
I lay very still thinking of you

You my man that I loved so much
How I would want and need your touch
I remember your kisses and what did you say
Take these tablets oh yes I remember that day

Impossible to think what to do next
As my heart falters the drums are softer now
God he has killed me sweat from my brow
I lay here and wait for death to take over
Panic beyond me I lay very still

I open my eyes and what this I see
A light coming towards it and me comes to me
Piece and tranquillity takes over from fear
This is my Father I know he is near
The drum silent now my breath is gone
Taking dads hand we walk together into the beyond
