Tuesday blues bite hard
 bad choices all around me
 and no good advice
 
 i wish i had words
 to erase the ones i said
 but it’s so hard to
 
 girls treated that way
 burns the blood in mama’s veins
 and i won’t take it
 
 to come home to lies
 harsh words with my own daughter
 whom i live to save
 
 i need a true rest
 a moment of clarity
 free from vicious words
