The You that Can Never Hide

A.M. Morgan
It keeps coming back because it can never leave

It's there no matter where you go or how much you try to deceive

It factors itself in every situation or circumstance

It cares not what you refuse to understand

It's a benefit that must arise

It's a gift that withstands the test of time

It brings joy and pain

It can cause someone else to want to forget your name

Patiently it allows itself to be lost and found

It can make a relationship better or stand on shaky ground

It's so hard but you can't deny its whereabouts

Because the true you is always transparent

No matter what you try to do to hide it

    No matter how much we try to change it, mask it, or ignore it; the true you will always come to light.
