Virtue and Vice

It begins with a mother’s advice
Girls are not to be heard but seen
So I locked my demons in my head
All my virtues lay on this vice

She feared for what she saw in my eyes
She prayed that my mind would be clean
“Stay away from the men” she had said
I wish she had thought it through twice

Anne said my ignorance would suffice
She had me like it was no sin
She’s a girl so mama had trusted
When she found out she froze like ice

It begins with a mother’s advice
Girls are not to be heard but seen
So I locked my demons in my head
All my virtues lay on this vice
