Silhouettes stood dark and tall,
I should have shut up once and for all.
My mouth was sealed,
no words were said.
When spoken, they were
empty words that went unheard.
Age divided us.
For this, I was mocked.
My tongue was sharp
so, I was flogged.
I saw you live your dream
all the time.
I saw the importance,
but what about mine?
I saw people,
I saw joy,
I saw children play with toys.
I wished for space,
far from there.
I wished for miles
as far as light years.
But I still asked myself,
"Why was I there?"
