No Name by Maureen Mcallen

NO NAME
Who are you, what is your name
Hiding behind these veils of darkness
Concealing your guilt and shame
Why can’t I reach you
Please don’t hide from me
All we have is each other to console
I will not let you be
Until you stop your running
Your hiding and pretense
A wall remains between us
It’s the wall of self-defense
Why can’t I reach you
Please don’t hide from me
It’s denial that enslaved you
But truth will set you free
