The gloom of my heart has a heavy burden
Locked in my chest with no key.
I feel almost a loss for myself
Selfishness expands from my body
Through the tips of my toes to the ends of my hair
No reason, every reason for this emotion
All I want is to expel this error
To blow it away from me forever.
To have her all to me
In my little cacoon forever
No one able to touch her
To see her or
Even hear her.
Ridicilous I know.
My burden is selfish
Although not completely.
My daughter is my light
From me she came
And from her my gloom will shine
Forever.
