Torn off from the people you love
You wander aimlessly in search of the past
A place that might make you whole
Bring back the cocooned little girl warmth.
Family is everything, is it?
Life in a place determined to suffocate your dreams
Sucks away your raison d'etre,
Turning you into a carcass and them into ghosts.
Torn off from the irreplaceable people you love,
You embody their values and smiles,
Remembering your past, and building your glorious future,
You give birth to a family wherever you go.
In your actions, they live immortal
Bloom your pain into a pacific village
On a sleepy mountain where everyone knows everyone
by nickname.
