To this
And to what my heart longs for
I strive to assemble some semblance of emotion
So I might resemble those identical individuals
And shine with a smile of my own

To set me apart from the rest
And wake me from this dream
The very same glass house I wish I could shatter
And feel the shards cut away my flesh
As I stand gazing upward to the heavens

Stars above
I'm praying for your love
The coldness of space and tears I know
Will never touch my face
Will only hear my cries
As the hopeful child deep within me
Dies
