The Weight She Fell Under |
When they pulled you from the tracks |
Your body splayed and split |
Your chest flushed bright |
As it was in life |
When they pulled you from the tracks |
Mindful of your separate halves |
Your face relaxed |
Lying flat upon your back |
Your body blushed beneath such crushing weight |
Stolen in your awkward stage |
That you never would escape |
The same stain that decorates your chest and face |
With a scarlet mark of shame |
When you’d stutter out of place |
And when they pulled you from the tracks |
Your eyes gone milky white |
Strangely alive |
Strange |
This would come at the same age |
That your mother took his name |
And labor pains |
Would collapse her fragile frame |
The city lights reflected off the bay |
From the streets where you were raised |
And taught your place |
By those stifling younger days |
Now that’s all been washed away |
With the color from your face |
Tracks traced in paint |
From a woman raised to wait |
And when they pulled you from the tracks |
Your body splayed and split |
Your chest flushed bright |
As it was in life |
When they pulled you from the tracks |
Mindful of your separate halves |
Your face relaxed |
Lying flat upon your back |
