I know who you are,
Your eyes are a witness to my diverse desires
Your ears entertain my words of your mastery
I know who you are,
Your compassion escapes me
Your perception of us is fantasy
I know who you are,
Your emotions are shackled by your fear of my impulsions
Your love is a ghost of my adulterated past
I know who you are,
Your Sins towards me I forgave long ago
Your feelings for me are distant and mine are part of your forever
You see,
I do know you
You are a
Father
Son
Brother
Lover
And most of all,
A man that will not let go
The properties of your denial will configure the destiny of your relationships
