'Tis her fate

The waves hit the shore amain

Pulverising the rocks which lay 

Aimlessly thinking 

about the endlessness 

of their pain 

In the rocks was written her fate 

"She shall never cross the gates

She is the wallflower of her age 

Others will be loved 

Others will catch the stars 

Others will sail the sea 

 Fish golden rings 

Run to the west 

And catch every sunset 

But 'tis her fate 

To remain astray

To get lost in a tempest 

While sailing far away 

Drown and wake up 

In an inundated cage"

But 'tis her fate 

So she paces the rocks 

She paced since she was born 

She collects shells at sea 

Hangs them on her wall 

Or threads them onto a string 

Spreads out her matting 

Reposes in the sand 

Staring directly at the sun 

She waves at the gulls 

And at ferrys that happen to pass

At night

She indulges in reveries

Her wishes are the ones of the kid 

She always hides and never reveals

For her heart remains an abyss 

No one ever wants to see

And shield 

Even when she begs 

And pleads

She no longer complaints 

For she now knows 

'Tis her fate 

To hie lorn 

And find haven in God's home
