DID YOU KNOW 🪔

If you knock on my heart once,

You hear the hollow cries

And the echoes of the whispers

Of a girl who used to fly

If you knock on my heart twice,

You might listen to the story

Of a girl who loved the ones Who stripped her of her glory.

If you hit on my heart thrice,

You’ll find my crumpled soul,

But do not be too upset

If you cannot make it whole,

For there are so many people

Who’ve torn me inside out

And the ones who try to heal me.

Have their eyes etched with doubt I’m like a broken doll

My only sounds are tinned,

And the badges of my solitude

Over my chest are pinned.

I know that I’m almost gone

That my heart is like a grain,

But there’s something you can do

That’ll make music once again.

Knock on it once, then twice,

Then knock on it ten times more

You’ll hear the tune of a song

Of a girl who loves to glide
