Don't look away

Look at me, I'm in front of you.

You pretend you don't know me, don't see me. 

You feel guilty? Miserable?

You know you can't forget what we lived, all I gave you.

Don't flee if I look for you. 

Don't believe I don't know. 

I want to see your bravery,

the courage you showed when you left me.

It was easy when you thought I'd always be there. 

Now is too late to fix, I can't believe in you no more. 

I learnt to respect myself, to need me more than you. 

Look at me, don't hide.

I'm still right in front of you.
