Reflections

I never stood a chance to know you,because you had already laid down the 
foundation for my path,based on your past,you had already decided before I took 
that walk with you,who I was and where I was headed ,you had already labeled 
me,before you knew me you never saw me,you saw your past relationships,I 
stood before you, in so many masked faces,you already knew what I was 
about.
