If I could start again

Concealing my identity
My Image was a fake
Now that I have found you
How painful a mistake

You're so genuine
Showing that you care
Now I fear losing you
In my eye a tear

Can't except who I am
You know just who you are
Experience has made you
Mine has left a scar

Trapped within a prison
Walls inside my mind
No hope of escape
Here I stay confined

You offer to release me
Out of my padded cell
Inside I feel my safest
A snail within its shell

Holidays to hell and back
You had a sharper knife
My leap came crashing down
But neither took a life

Strange we are so different
Your reflection in my mirror
Beauty staring back at me
Guiding me ever nearer

Wish I could start again
The consequences are dire
Please don't remember me Gema
As a freak and as a liar

Gema thanks for your trust I didn't mean to deceive you, I just wanted to stay hidden
