What do you see ?

Milicent

On the dreamers bay we sit

the waves ebb and flow

sunset to sunrise,

I think of you and me

the Sun and the Moon

we both have sides 

those that we don't show each other 

 but you lit me up

Milicent

You think your daughter does not care

that she is lost to the sea

always absent-minded

you, who are a fire ever consuming and burning

cannot fathom it,

 it's just that this world hurts her

so she sits here dreaming forever

forgive your daughters

for we bear burden of the wars unspoken

Milicent

Do you still remember me

or you would rather not ?

we once made a lovers pact

at the tree that bears our initials

our multicolor dreams remain stored inside a prism

I miss that world and several others

I wish you the best

Milicent

I didn't bother to really see your world

ignorant and arrogant I stayed

with my eyes closed

blinded by the light

now, I see you in me

Milicent
