mama you didn't want a daughter you wanted a doll. father you didn't want a second chance you wished i was a son. you both hated me so terribly i still think it might be love. you both wanted from me everything i couldn't give.
you won't get an obedient daughter. you won't get an stoic son. pray to heaven all you want, you want everything; you'll get none.
all you get is me.
all i am won't be enough.
