 Just For Thought

The Price


I'll buy that for you if you swear,
To never tell I've touched you there.
WOW ! A new bike ! Just for you !
(But guess what you must let me do.)
  
If you love me, you won't tell.
(They'd put me in an iron cell!)
They won't believe you anyway.
And if you tell them, I'll just say,
You're just a kid who likes to lie
(And I will easily deny!)

I'll make you lie; Make you believe
That you're the one at fault.
It's bath-time ! Let me wash you.
(While I slip in my assault.)

It's ok, I love you.
But only I can touch you there.
(It's just my way to fool you
And make you think I care!)

No one can love you. Only me.
(But I can't ever let them see.)
They just wouldn't understand
Where I've touched your body at.

If you want that toy car
You'll promise not to say
To anybody, ever,
Where I've touched you at today.

I'll buy you any toy you want
But there's a sacrifice.
You'll have to learn to lie for me...
...a child pays the price.

(the venting of a survivor)
