Fallout (ver 1.0)

As a child dad killed mom
while I slept in the next room
In my dream I saw her dying scream
As a spiraling ribbon on the floor
I didn't wake, I didn't know, I didn't act, I didn't save
The object of my lust and fantasy
the object of my rage and scorn
The object of my unrequited love
Overcome with grief, no one knew, no one saw me
Fold into my shell, die and go to hell
Where I would spend eternity
 Saving a woman who couldn't love me
