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 forwardI see the pieces of the heart
the world has trodden past
and of the puzzle of the answers
I sought all my life to findI 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 importantI 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 themI 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 worldI 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?
