I wanted to be the reason they smiled
Their praise meant acceptance
I'm afraid to lose it
Terrified I won't be their daughter
Pressure builds up
Heavy on my shoulders
Disappointment is forbbiden
Still
It was all I succeeded in
I am a failure
A curse placed on them
- At the moment of conception -
Pandora's box opened once more
Hope was let out
Their world was ravaged by chaos
The price paid for my life
