I think it's sad

The inability to miss

She seems mad

For I have this bliss

We drown in our mistakes

We float when the virtue takes

Role of what everyone makes


As if carrying judgments is your talent

As if absorbing negativity from a parent

Will make you as tough as a gallant


A ghost you never see

A soul you never hear

A daughter you never feel

I am them and they are me

They are all that I can be

I am that girl by the sea

I am a servant and you are free

Long ago I hid the key

That made a human out of me
