"My Day Will Come"
The Council of Thirteen left me to this doom,
Life as a host I will resume.
So much better to die than to live as a slave,
But for my son and all Humans, I must be brave.
Away to another planet; far, far, from here,
Just the thought makes my very soul shed a tear.
No tears will my actual eyes be able to shed,
As long as Visser One remains in my head.
But she cannot control my thoughts or my soul,
I have let it be known what is my goal.
To someday be wonderfully free,
And if I have to die, then so it will be.
But my goal has been savagely ripped away,
The Visser will live, and in my head she'll stay.
She holds me slave, but is a mother, like me,
Should I feel hate, or should I feel pity?
As we step aboard the ship my fate is sealed,
Her sins are forgiven; my body's wounds are healed.
She gets a new start, yet I'm worse than before.
My heart sinks as they start the engine and close the shuttle door.
My dream has been taken, but at least my son is all right,
Visser One can't tell who he is, or he'll take her life.
A flare of hope comes as I think of my son,
And I promise the Visser, My day will come
