Gift of Life

Unaware of your existence back then

But I could always feel you

And felt the impact you’ve had

For as long as I can remember

This feeling remains in my chest

The reason for my everlasting loneliness

Take possession of me, I’ll be the vessel you need

Make space to undo my deeds

Flourish to my expense, you deserved the ascent

The gift of life that you should have

From the moment that I realized

Something died inside

My grief has echoed in the afterlife

Oh, all the nights I wanted to lay down,

Lay down slumbering eternally with you

Tied to you

To this day I keep the thought that

We still bond

Take possession of me, I’ll be the vessel you need

Make space to undo my deeds

Flourish to my expense, you deserved the ascent

The gift of life that you should have

How can I not be dragged toward unconsciousness

When before I was born, I witnessed death
