Sins of the Father
Sometimes you don't get to choose what to feel

born out of bestial darkness
raised under a placebo light
a perpetual participatory starkness
of the shade and also that night
a rudimentary upbringing of sorts
they knew i wasn't one of them
just me and my turgid thoughts
i radiated an ignorant shame
trying not to imagine the point of conception
that moment of hate disguised as lust
trying to avoid this very perception
and still continue because i must
welcomed yes but not really wanted
i continue alone, forever haunted
