I seek the torment
of a past long gone
and the time we can't get back
—the regret of days exist
just to get me to move forward

I see the pieces of the heart
the world has trodden past
and of the puzzle of the answers
I sought all my life to find

I seek the scars
and the pain of the chances
missed and wouldn't ever be given
—the unfairness of times exists
just to tell me I'm not important

I seek the torment
of attending a thousand funerals
for the people I wish to become
—the people who had been me
had expired with no one
to mourn them

I seek the ship sailing
tumultuous oceans
away from who I am
—how I wish to drown
in the regret of days
and the unfairness of ways
of the world

I seek the torment
—the agony—brought about
by the burning of my feet
on a thousand embers of coals
lit up until sunrise
because without my scars
and the hurt I carry every day
then, who am I?
