Odin

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



Did I defy you?
Every second of the day.
Did I hate you?
Every second of the day.
Did I love you?
Every second of the day.
But the day is no more?
Every second.

Did you punish me?
Every second of the day.
Did you forgive me?
Every second of the day.
But positivity is no more?
Every secon.

Did my words mean?
Every second of the day.
Did words have no pattern?
Every second of the day.
But why do I understand?
Every sec.

Did you gain a personality?
Every second of the day.
Did you have no feelings?
Every second of the day.
But why are you empty?
Ever se.

Did you loose who you are?
Every second of the day.
Did you live then as me?
Every second of the day.
But being me isn't God?
Every s.

Did I ask every question?
Every second of the day.
Did you know every answer?
Every second of the day.
But what did we do then?
Everything.
