Shadows

An image from long ago

Someone I just met, but already know

it hurt so much I almost said no

I had no idea that it was you!

The pain I felt was of no concern,

because of what I am, I gave up it all

This is the prize that I had to earn

you are so much more than I ever thought

but yet after the years, you still knew my face.

A treasure to me that I cannot  replace,

a stranger in my own home, so out of place.

It felt so good to me, but was so much pain to be!!
