I
AM YOUR DAUGHTER
I make my way to this rocky shore,
to look for answers
in the mirrored surface
of the inky water.
You are the only one who can help me
Mother
For no matter how modern the life I live
in my soul’s deepest regions
I am Your daughter.
~*~
Life troubles me sometimes,
and I am tempted
to surrender myself
beneath the icy water,
but I seeks answers instead
Mother
For no matter how painful life may be
I realize I can never be a coward,
for I am your daughter.
~*~
Did you make me this way for a reason,
a purpose unseen by my eyes
and will it ever be revealed,
How can I decide what is truth
and how much is merely lies?
How can I live the life you would have me live
if it is never to my sight revealed?
If the others are the holders of the truth
how can I be your daughter?
~*~
I make my way to this rocky shore
to see your silver face
reflected in the surface
of the mirrored water
looking for some proof of our connection
Mother
Do I resemble you in any way?
Can others see and understand
that I am your daughter?
~*~
I make my way to this rocky shore
to find myself
in the silence beside this satin water.
I replenish my soul
Mother,
just knowing you are there
No matter how others see me,
I know I am your daughter.
