Sighs


I don't belong here. 

I don't know why.

I think and I try

And for hours alone would cry.

I try to be 

I try heed

I try to need and feel a part, but most times is a blind aimless shot in the dark.

Sometime long ago, a girl took a leap

and boy, did she fall: deep, deep, deep.

But all is gone.

She did not know, oh she did not know

all that happened would make her grow,

make her bloom, make her feel like a child,

in a world she could not last, running wild

but finishing last.

All she saw were things never meant to be,

just another unfulfilled tragic memory.
