A Call From Anonymous

He came into my life like the winds of september

I swayed back and forth like a branch in stormy weather

Should never have let him in through the door

But I ended up crying for him on the kitchen floor

Things were moving too fast but I was immobilized

I gave out,I gave in and then I realized

that there was life inside of me

and time seemed to crawl on endlessly

It was barely a month but it seemed forever

Then he said,"We can't be together.."

It thought it was safe in me

But my torment wouldn't let it be

It never put its fingers in mine

I never sang it a lullaby to stop it from crying

It never smelt the wet earth after rain

Never moved when i was sober and sane

It never slept in the light

'Coz I decided I couldn't be a mother last night...
