You Don'T Know Me
You don't know me
Because I won't let you.
I allow you to know some of me;
Those parts I feel I can reveal
Without fear or concern
Of harming myself in some way.
But you'll never really know me.
Not all of me. Ever
There is a part of me
That's dark, hidden and mysterious
That I stay away from
Except, perhaps, when I sleep.
No, you don’t know me.
How can you
When I don’t really know myself?
