Dissociation poem

 
angel-2580224_1920.jpg

No, I can’t come to play today

Daddy stole my soul away.

Last night as he lay on me

A little angel I did see.

Tears were running down her face

Swift she bore me from that place.

High above where angels fly

High up in the big blue sky.

Looking down I saw a bed

Out of which my soul had fled.

Originally written 1999
