I can't take it anymore
Can you...

Master of disguise,
in your profession of violence...

I have tried to erase you from my memory -
but I drastically fail every time...

She grips on tightly to her precious black crayon,
as if it was made of gold. She harshly scribbles...

Dear Child,
I am the sparkly dream catcher...

I didn't know how much I loved you
Until you came to my book launch...

I have a dream where I will live
in a future of freedom...

Dreaming of the past
we were supposed to last...

Every time I try to leave,
you always keep me back...

Day by day
Drifting away...

Your words burn my ears
like a dragon breathing fire...

The saddest thing you will ever see
is a child's heart longing to be free...
