The Lament of Callie and Sabrina “She is different from us so just walk away What ever could someone like her have to say?” Sabrina thought her words went unheard But Callie took inside of her every word Sabrina was the pretty one, loved by all the rest She had the brand new car, she was so finely dressed Callie was the outcast, the one who do not fit in So here is where we start the tale, now I must begin Sabrina had the boyfriend, the group of followers too Callie just watched from outside, planning what to do She had been the victim of torment for so many years Sabrina got high on bringing poor Callie to tears But Callie was a beauty in her own special way And she knew where Sabrina’s boyfriend was on this day She knew how to be a temptress, she’d practiced late at night Sabrina’s little man, he didn’t put up a fight The two became entangled in a grown up lovers game Callie knew Sabrina would never look at her the same The day finally came for Callie to announce what she did hide She carried Sabrina’s boyfriend’s child, she was to be his bride! Enraged Sabrina screamed at them atop a very high hill Then she lunged at Callie and pushed with all her will Poor Callies body went tumbling and landed without a breath Sabrina had pushed Callie to her very death. Now murder is the charge she faced, not for one- but two Remember inside Callies body, a baby there grew She was sentenced and taken away to the state pen How different her life was now from what it had been Victims of circumstance, from childhood cruelty Lives were ended on that day, not one or two, but three For the poor boyfriend whom we never shared his name He the innocent player in a heartless game When he lost his baby, he could take no more He simply lost the will to live, on life he closed the door The moral of this story somewhere here is true There are always innocent victims for all mean things you do. ------------------ Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind... |
