SHE

There are no words she says,

How do I then tell of my sorrow

How do they who are but mine, so unlike me?

Why didn’t I get to choose them?

Why must I be here,

Floating alone mid sea

For the shores are not mine

And the waters are not for me

Where must I head now?

For the shores are not mine

And the waters are not for me

I shed tears for one other woman today,

Who couldn’t speak for herself

Who this world ruined so selflessly

For a woman it is I weep,

And a woman that made me.

A woman it was who caused it,

Still another woman they can’t see.
