I saw who I was

In the wave of your hand,

In the smile you faked,

In the schemes that you planned.

I saw who I was

In your distant stare,

The allies you kept

When I wasn’t there.

I saw who I was

In your jokes and your laughs.

I saw who I was

When you lost your mask.

I saw who I was;

Yes, I saw the real me.

I saw who I was–

The real you set me free.
