I shriek in the middle of the night, 

As the nightmare holds me tight. 

Those events still haunt me, 

Even though I pretend to be carefree. 


That sight of my dead parents, 

Has covered my heart with dents. 

And not a day goes by,

Without me fighting the urge to cry. 


I was thrown from one orphanage to the other, 

Since I didn't deserve even a foster mother. 

The look of pity on people's faces, 

Broke my courage down to pieces. 


Since then I haven't been able to sleep well, 

As my dreams are filled with the sound of death knell.

And not a day goes by,

Without me wishing to shut tight my eye. 


It is difficult to keep going on, 

When the purpose of your life is gone. 

There's just one dream to look on to, 

That is to press the button of undo. 


I still try my best, 

And look forward with a zest.

But not a day goes by, 

When I try to pretend that this was all a lie. 


Thank you!
