You've cut me, you've sewn me
You've raised me, you've grown me
You've made me, you've known me
ever since the night I spoke.
You've built me, you've blocked me
You've freed me, you've locked me
You've helped me, you've mocked me
with a dream that you awoke.
You've held me, you've drowned me
Your form unknown around me
You've lost me, you've found me
Your woven threads confound me
You've moved me, you've bound me
Your depth and length enshroud me
And all the while you ground me
To a world unfit for you.
And silently you stir
Beneath the crevice of my youth.
A double-sided knife
would be an understated truth.
