Reflections on me

The shadow
I see it behind me
Destined to follow
Wanting to see

Always watching
All of them see
See my hurting
Hurting me

Being invaded
Must find safety
See what I did
No privacy

Mirrors show
So all can see
Reflect what I know
Know about me

It has to be hid
The secret of me
What I did
Must die with me

The shadow must go
And so must I
For what we are
(Is truth)
Not a lie
