I dress in black to hide who I am.

The cloth over my eyes makes no difference; I am blind.

I cannot tell the world eyes open or closed.

I have been in the dark for so long.

I left my home to heighten my knowledge,

But instead have forgotten it all.

With hood up I stand to face this world.

I cannot bring myself out in the open.

I left someone back where my journey started.

I wonder if they're still looking for me.

I don't want to be found anymore.

I can't let anyone know.

Look at me, see what I've become.

This is the form I chose but I made the wrong choice.

When will I be myself once more?

Is this what I really am?

I just want to go back to the way I was.

Until that time, I can't return.
