A day will come!



A day will come,
When I shall be stronger,
To look at the mirror again.
And say to you,
Have overcome you,
You're no longer my shadow.
Am done with you,
For good!
And never coming back.
You're the past,
I can't go back to,
The future that's where,
I truly belong.
Walking in your shade,
Doesn't suit me anymore.
The day is near
That I will finally
Forget everything about you
And live on.
