You had the power, calm and clean
and I was just a wild sixteen
You stared at me and touched my arm
I felt you close, so pure and warm
The way you smiled, just long enough
made me believe it could be love
I looked at you to search the truth
You walked away with all my youth
But at the end and after all,
all you wanted was control
You were the wind, I was the feather
You should have known it so much better
It was so wrong, but felt so right
I tried to run, you held me tight
I could talk about being responsible and being fair
but there’s an empty space
cause you never were
Yeah I was sixteen, not a sound
and you still walked on higher ground
For me, it was love
Did you feel the same?
You took my pride, I took the blame
I fell for you, I couldn’t choose
but you’re the game
I was destined to lose
Deep in my heart, I begged you to stay
You didn’t care, you walked away
And in that silence, loud and wide
something in me slowly died
You were the wind, I was the feather
You should have known it so much better
It was so wrong, but felt so right
I tried to run, you held me tight
I could talk about being responsible and being fair
but there’s an empty space,
cause you never were
Yeah I was sixteen, not a sound
and you still walked on higher ground
I hope you get your shit together
cause now I know it better
I might be young and immature
I might be dumb and insecure
I love too deeply to be wrong
so don’t confuse a girl this young
Now ghost me, hate me, I don’t care
I hope one day you’ll grow a pair
You were the wind, I was the feather
You should have known it so much better
It was so wrong, but felt so right
I tried to run, you held me tight
I could talk about being responsible and being fair
but there’s an empty space
cause you never were
Yeah I was sixteen, not a sound
and you still walked on higher ground

Dieses Gedicht beschreibt die schmerzhafte Erfahrung einer 16-Jährigen in einer Beziehung, die von einem massiven Machtgefälle geprägt war. Die ältere Person ("You") nutzte ihre Kontrolle aus und manipulierte das junge Ich ("I"), was zu tiefem Herzschmerz und dem Verlust der jugendlichen Unschuld führte. Obwohl die Beziehung anfangs verlockend war ("felt so right"), erkannte das Ich später die Unehrlichkeit und Verantwortungslosigkeit der anderen Person.
Am Ende findet das Ich jedoch Stärke und Selbstachtung, indem es die traumatische Erfahrung verarbeitet und der anderen Person die Stirn bietet.
