How can it be?
Marc Mosko, 1996
What does it mean to never be yelled at,
never be ignored, never be scorned?
What does it mean to never be angry,
never be desperate, never be mad?
What does it mean to never protect,
never fear, never lie?
What does it mean to never be loved?
How can it be that I am without
guidance, without advice, without a voice?
How can it be that I am without
anyone, without a mother, without a father?
How can it be that they have died.
