a    Was she like the water between the rocks?

b    While freezing expanding its small enclosure

a    Splitting and popping the dead that which shocks

b    Finally free to reach its exposure

c    She summoned her forgettable past

d    Like the water that dreams of its past stream

c    No more having the name of an outcast

d    The thought of escaping no more a dream

e    Like a mum whom left her untaught child

f    Stuck in a house, not a kind soul to trust

e    To wild to tame much less become mild

f    A head full of weary, stomach filled with lotus

g    She looked mostly for hope, love and shelter

g    Found too late from her violent dead lover.
