I haven't really had much time to write lately, so I didn't get this piece finished. It's written in my accent, so I'm not sure how well it rhymes in other accents, but most lines should sound alright.
The Child Is Born
The family gazes upon a baby laying there, before his kin
The disease is agonizing and has deformed his skin
He’s blinded by the tightness of his blood red, swollen eyelids
The child crying, lying down, frightened, whilst writhing around
His skin is a rock hard shell, breaking and bleeding
With every move he’s taking, it’s peeling. Doctor’s can’t tell…
…If the baby will even make it through the evening
His chest constricted, skin lacerates when he’s breathing
Pain wracking through the boy’s skin where it’s cracking at the joints
Parents hoped for a flawless baby, but that hope’s been destroyed
Something worse than what the doctors ever saw
His skin looked shredded and torn, severed and worn
Terror has formed in the hearts of his loving family
Death is looming for the newborn, such a tragedy
And as they gawk at the disfigured baby, awful and vile
They anticipate death for this near corpse of a child
