She sold her soul to the devil
For a touch of financial freedom and empty promises
She loved reading in her childhood, but those days are long gone
She knows now what it's like when the soul suffers
Her suppressed emotions surfaced far too late
She attempted to mend things
Using bent scissors and tape
It never quite worked as intended
The proper adhesive remained hidden
Her suppressed emotions surfaced far too late
When this happened, her two daughters formed two separate camps
Built on ignorance, humiliation, and a false facade
The mother added fuel to the fire and to her own veins
Literally and figuratively ruining herself and everyone around her
Her suppressed emotions surfaced far too late
Nobody could step in; they either silenced themselves or disconnected
Women inflicted barbaric acts upon themselves
Creating fictional visions to align with the best books
Only one of them would receive the rightful reward
Her suppressed emotions surfaced far too late
She can't name them, not yet
Gradually, she's opening herself to new experiences
She's spent years trying desperately to forget
Shielding herself and everyone else along the way
