the wind blows through me
as I sit and contemplate
the fading desire to forget
and make believe I've faded away
while you stalk me through the fading summer
just out of reach
just out of sight
but always making your presence known
I've brushed you aside
turned my back
wished you would disappear
and that I could be free
that I could be human
and that someone would understand
that in the end you're a piece of me
that I cannot hide
and all I can do is protect everyone else
from your shadow
