Haunted
My own Shadow
Gave me a scare,
My own thoughts
Left me bare.
All my wrongs
Made me feel guilty,
My own deeds
Left me empty.
All my feelings
Became senseless,
All my emotions
Left me defenseless.
My own dreams
Threaten me,
My character
Lost its beauty.
All my wishes
Drove me insane,
My brighter hopes
Caused me pain.
My helpful thoughts
Seems so mean,
All my doings
No longer kin.
I look at myself distantly,
And I see myself
Haunted by me.
