Black and White
Ellen Sagh
Black and White
I know everything
I don’t know anything
She has everything
I have nothing
I want a chance
The chance denied me
To see life more
Than in black and white
I know it all
I know nothing
Why do I always
Have to be right
The lump in my throat
prevents me from speaking
All that I know that was done to me
My eyes are open but I’m not seeing
Just feeling the pain that’s inside of me
Why can’t it end; I’m tired and broken
I’m sick of the strain of holding it in
My body weeps as it was a token
My girl inside speaks from within
I did my best to fit in and be someone
I tried so hard that part of me died
The natural creative fun loving woman
Is trying to escape, escape from inside
Dancing and singing, playing and jumping
Swimming and skiing, fun in the sun
All these things will be mine for the asking
If my girl learns to walk; then she can run
Right now I’m little and hurting all over
I need attention, some energy and love
I want a mommy and a daddy
To care for me when I wake up
I’m tired and spent; want to sleep and be free
I know my dreams will sort it out for me.
