In Attention I Stand

In attention I stand without a body by side. 
Theres no longer secrets within me, no more lies to soon hide. 
To some degree,
I'm alone in my home,
where there's no one in which to confide.
My minds once again locked,
behind a door with no key.

There's no longer affection.
Inside a mirror it's just me,
gazing upon something without any reflection.
In attention i stand without a body by side longing for attention.
