I saw you in those shadows,
but you never walked on in.
You were always watching,
considered mostly everything.
Today you came to centre,
that mirror opened wide.
I walked in to join you there,
in the place that you reside.
I see you now much clearer,
in the etchings on my face.
Turning from the mirror now,
but I know you leave a trace.
Suppose it’s time to join up,
we’re heading the same way.
It’s time for me to face you,
as all those things I never say.
