feelings of shame and guilt, both run deep
sitting alone today waiting for my tea to steep
thinking about the people in my life, people I know
preserving the optimism, what it takes to grow, together
yes, togetherness is a condition I long to feel
I am a picture of shame and guilt, both run deep
burning images, so shall I sow, so shall I reap
the houses on fire, the person I am, the lies I told, the things I did
I was a liar, truth has been teacher, without truth I once lived
the many lives of my lifetime make up the pictures of me
memories of shame and guilt, both run deep
trouble from a deceiving heart makes me weep
with these sad sullen tears, memories fade with every year
I now have accepted myself, taught myself, how to live in comfort
comfort comes from knowing myself, an important part of my mental health
mirror reflections of shame and guilt, both run deep
my rest is a test, time has helped me get a good night's sleep
deconstructing nightmare's in a round about way
consciousness of the people I love gets me through the day
in a life full of mirrors, I am proud of what I see, a testament to resiliency
