The Secret Me

by *Charisma*   Aug 28, 2006


I am afraid to write what I really feel
Afraid that the world will see
If I name names or use specifics
They could uncover me

I stay hidden behind vague words
Those that barely describe
And for now these will have to do
And say how I feel inside

Often I keep captive in me
Things I wish not to know
If I don't acknowledge them
Maybe they'll fail to show

I hide the emotions that build up
And scream for a chance to leave
I know the timing is still off
So I keep them hidden in me

They are secrets I wish not to share
But nothing harmful or bad
Just thoughts that are for myself
And no one else to be had

And one day if you are close enough
And I trust you with all of my heart
You can be one of the few
Whom knows this secret part

    Trust is such a hard thing to give at times. For when you choose to trust, you open yourself up to being hurt. Nice to read about the steps to trusting,though. Another good one.
