Through the Looking Glass

You cannot see me
Because I'm not really here
You cannot hear me
Because my words are empty

I'm not your daughter
Just a collection of flesh
Not your offspring
Just a mistake of a night long past

Forget that mistake
Forget I'm your ward
Forget I once felt
Forget I ever came

You've touched the blood stains
You've touched my razors edge
You've read the screams I've written
But they're all just pretend

I am 'too young to know what pain is.'
'Too young to know strife.'
'Too stupid to overcome fears.'
But I am not afraid to die

Quod me nutrit me destruit.
("What nourishes me also destroys me." - latin)
