Is it you that interacts with world or do I? Because here lately, I have struggled with minding my own words and figuring out how to handle certain situations. It's like no matter which road I take, you seem to be lurking there in the shadows.
I'm not sure if it's just me or if you're intentionally pushing away the people I love, but could you stop it? I see their hearts breaking every day because of something you or I have done to keep our distance from them. They've given me everything over the years, but their cups will eventually stop pouring. When that happens, we both will be left to suffer alone.
My suggestion is that you reveal yourself to me. Show me where the line that separates us is. I need to know what you look like so I don't mistake you for my own reflection.
Signed,
the girl you haunt
