Seen; while hiding
You speak of anger, resentment and restlessness
As if you know me and have been part of my life for years

I am taken back by your directness, strenght and intelligence
As I listen to you disect and catagorise my life into compartments

You take the lead, probing and redirecting
I wonder why you are avoiding the subject but answer you anyways

Your postion changes, direct and toneless
Again I answer as I feel invaded as I once again respond to your query

The door is open, heavy and real
The elephant in the room is standing behind you mocking me too

An invitation is offered, confused and insulted
I agree half-heartdly and unsure of my intention to see you again

I have survived, restless and angry
Tossing and turning as I contemplate and mull over why I feel so misdirected

The mirror, clear and unbroken
I see myself looking at someone I don't know and wonder how you alread knew

Tomorrow awaits, breathless and pained
I reflect on your words and comments and wonder what else you may expose as true

A stranger, listening and waiting
I am unnerved brusied and battered as I decide what I should do with or without you
