you can Run but you cant Hide

Sometimes
when I look in the mirror...
I see a stranger
looking back at me.

I stare intently
trying hard to see
the person
that I used to be.

Sometimes
I see her
by my side.

And sometimes
I see
that she's trying to hide.

Sometimes I try to hide
even from myself.

But when she's standing
there

there's no place left.
