if i stand
if i stand alone
she asked
who will i be
what will i believe
and what will you see
when you look on me
but rather than wait
on herself
for the answer to come
she took a shallow breath
and blithley jumped
on in
lost in the thoughts
of someone elses mind
no other way out
she said
and was convinced
it was right
every sad morning
and every bitter night
she looked for an answer
that she failed
to find
the child
with the mother
she never had
and always
hoped
for
