I watch as the kite dances in the wind.
It's redness contrasts with the sky...

I look at my reflection
Who do I see...

I'm tired of trying to believe
Everyone of my lies...

I feel safe when held tight in your arms.
I feel safe knowing you'll be there for me...

Sitting in the sand, a little girl builds her...
Piles of sand create her masterpiece, a sand...

Why is it that inside, I'm screaming,
Yet you don't seem to hear anything...

Unable to really be free,
Your chains imprison me...

As I stare at the blank piece of paper,
I find no words to fill its emptiness...

Thinned from starvation.
Weak from dehydration...

Shorts. Tank top. Running shoes.
The sun smiles at me, finally...

Thoughts echo in their heads,
As silence escapes their lips...

Silence reigns around me.
I hear not a sound...
