I lose my identity
It's no longer safe and I leave
But where to? There's nowhere else I can be
I resume what I do, vacantly
I shelter up and protect
What little's left in my chest
Let visitors in with suspense
Await the expense
I listen and watch with intent
Noticing clues, truths inside the indents
Try deduce what's behind this event
The face and the show, both pretend
Receded in my place
The corner at the end of the chase
Biding time, and resign
And erase
