Shadow

Why are you in my heart?
Get out..
You have no right being there!
It’s not where you belong at all

I don’t even know who you are
You’re like a faint and distant memory
A vague shadow swimming through my blood
The scent of something I already forgot

And you won’t let me in either
Because if I can’t get you out
I want to know your story
But you refuse to respond

Everytime I see your face
You remind me of this feeling
So remote and irrelevant
Still so apparant and appealing

I want to know you
Or I want you gone
Looking for signals
That are missing

I need to run from this
Knowing either way you’ll follow
And since I can’t hide in your chest
I don’t want to know where I’m going

Someday I hope you’ll release me
And show me who you really are
Cause being in love with a total stranger
Is the scariest thing ever so far
