Like a shadow, she tiptoes behind me
Unpredictable
I never know what light will make her emerge
With her comes me, with me comes her
She is the darker side of me
I hide her behind the eclipse of the rebellious me
She is fragile and insecure
I’ve tried to rid of her, to set her free
But she is the darker side of me
I hesitate to let you see
Please, don’t look into my eyes
I fear there won’t be room for us or we
If I show you the darker side of me
She is what I used to be
Everyday, a conscious decision
To be different than the product of what they made me to be
She is the darker side of me
I’ve come to accept her as the other girl in me
Where the anger, hurt, and betrayal sleeps
All the while she is still a part
She is the darker side of me
