You cannot outrun your shadow no matter how hard you try.

Am I just running from my shadow

it has been so long that I no longer know

Am I still being chased

or has it all caught up

what bits are authentic and what has been replaced

I am surprised that I recognised my own face

Two worlds neither merged nor torn apart

existing in both tears at my heart
