Torn apart pieces
And pieces of parents
Sewn to my body
With careless, frayed thread
Memories and scars and
Forgotten places
Familiar breath
On my neck, strangles me
Pictures of blood
And expected achievements
Guiding me slowly
To faraway seas
Grudges and guilt and
Priceless advices
Pumps blood in my heart
And fires me, I quit
Fathers with guns
And mothers with poison
Chasing their children
To be scared of their seeds
Choking on stories of
Experiences past us
Shedding my skin
Just to feel more alive
Eternal orbits
And wandering faces
Saying goodnight to
Strangers we know
Petals from flowers
And love from the moonlight
Opens my eyes
To a life all my own
