CARSON’S NIGHTLY DANCE
Written By Linda A. Knowles
June 2020
*
Carson came home at 4 a.m.
And Emily wondered where he had been
when she came out of her room,
saw him sitting on the steps
and she called out to him, “Dad.”
She wondered what he was doing
and could only assume it was bad.
*
She said he wouldn’t look at her,
His guilt she would have seen,
Who was he with at night after 10:15 p.m.,
especially when Lillith, his wife, turned her head,
only to discover he wasn’t next to her in bed.
*
He doesn’t seem to understand;
Emily kept hearing Lillith cry,
But Darby saw Lillith’s tears,
her trembling with every heavy sigh.
*
Emily wanted to know does he have another kid?
Maybe a third child that he hid?
Carson forgot how to tell the truth.
He just kept on lying.
He doesn’t seem to understand;
his wife is always crying.
*
He needs to man up,
and tell the truth,
That he’s been reckless
and far too loose.
