Everyone has their own idea about how I should live my life.

I don't know who I am anymore, I'm not the person I thought I was.

She wouldn't have done the things I have that have hurt people so much.

I don't want to be someone who causes this much pain.

So I'm going to find Daddy.

Maybe we will meet again, maybe one day I will return.

But whatever happens, I wish you all every happiness for the rest of your lives,

Kate

found written on wall of closet in Tower House, dated September 1995



When every choice is taken from your hands, when everyone disrupts the simplest plans

When you haven't the fight left to shout, when you're dying from the inside out

Thoughts as jumbled as a box of cats, taking the easy way isn't as easy as that

One man's crazy is another man's sane, all I'm saying is I've felt real pain

One man's shadow is another man's ghost, all I'm saying is that I've seen them both

So when I tell you that I'm fine

Read between my parallel lines

And fix my heart, shattered like glass

My little heart of glass

from Heart of Glass on Dani Drago's 2020 album, Little Black Book
