The little planet that is my safe haven
From the person that I have become
It is a New World in itself.
I can see my family from here
Thoughts of my past haunt me when I am there.
Seeing people eat and cry
I searched very hard to find myself
As if I should bother… but I tried.
I found someone who looks like me
She has my face yet there is nothing familiar about her
She has a big smile on her face.
People stare and smile back at her
She keeps smiling even after she falls
Who smiles after falling, this can’t be me.
