I let your knives pierce my throat,
and my words were striked off once more.
Who am I? 
Wishing to be someone I am not,
and will never be.

My body is no heaven, no lake, no beauty,
I hate it.
Who am I? Wanting to be you,
how faultless you always were,
and how flawed and fractured my verses are.

I searched for answers, who am I?
A poetess wannabe, a pretender.
The wound of your knife is almost sweet,
I am addicted; for i am insecure.
Who am I? Nobody.

Your words dig deeper in my throat,
my phrases lost in the crevices.
I am no one against you,
I never will be.
Who am I really?

~Sia ❤️
