This is it
and this I know
here I shall stay
and there I won’t go
here you are
and here I am
I am a girl
only a human
look over there
but see over here
the sky cries rain
and I cry a tear
that is that
and it’s not this
it could not be
for I won’t miss
people go by
but I stand still
I can’t eat
or I’ll get ill
can you tell time
it’s one o’clock
or is it two
time changes a lot
I am so tired
I can’t sleep
don’t worry
secrets I keep
he leaves here
and goes there
what did you say
I can’t hear
are you sad
or are you happy
what do you see
when you look in a mirror
do you see pretty
or do you see fear
I know what I say
and I’m staying here
in this place
atop the pier
