Insignificant this day has been, which I predicted far ahead So why do I still hang low my soppy, untouched head? Expect the unexpected, and you shall never be surprised How does one not expect what’s expected to save one’s cries? My expression dismayed, my heart flutters not For on my day of birth, my mother has forgot I do not deserve a celebration, I have come to understand Those close in relation to I, I failed to grasp their hand To take hold of what is false, my importance and existence If thy blood shall not think of me, why exhibit anything but resistance?

Just another day.
Insignificant this day has been, which I predicted far ahead So why do I still hang low my soppy, untouched head? Expect the unexpected, and you shall never be surprised How does one not expect what’s expected to save one’s cries? My expression dismayed, my heart flutters not For on my day of birth, my mother has forgot I do not deserve a celebration, I have come to understand Those close in relation to I, I failed to grasp their hand To take hold of what is false, my importance and existence If thy blood shall not think of me, why exhibit anything but resistance?
Yesterday was my birthday and my Mom didn't even remember.
