He told me to revisit my past
so ill try.

So little, so innocent,
playing in the snow,
at the age of 5,
its all I had to know

I liked this boy,
he had blonde hair
he was incredibly cute
and my heart warms
when I still remember his name

we flew out one summer
to an island far far away
to see my dad, because we missed him so so bad
cash flow was low, what did I know
so we had to stay
on the island far far away

thrown in the deep end
of a language I don't comprehend
in a pool full of people
that didn't understand who I am

they laughed and they mocked
because what do they know,
this little foreign girl
so pathetic, I know

I cried and I sat
in silence for long
its how I became the 'shy one'
I know

here I still sit,
writing in the now not so foreign tongue
in an island far far away
what could I have known
