So innocent I’ve been

gazing at the world

with endless possibilities

A vision clouded

by another’s bliss

I’m no longer who I was

and what I now behold

merely drifting

away from right

away from reason

Once I was all of you

and you all could be me

my feet found my own path

Silently unknown

Safe and undisgraced

Still untouched by any testimony

I have been to where I shouldn’t have

an echo of before

you made me wander

looking for rest

and finding only chaos

So I wander evermore

in your shadow I was hidden

I hide

from all the pain

and all the shame you made me feel

from what has been

and how I’ll never fully heal

I hide
