Untitled

I stare out the window

Lost in a thousand thoughts

Nobody knows what I am thinking

No one could ever guess

Everything I keep inside

Is too hard to tell

I lock everything away

Where no one can see

It pains me to say

But it is the truth

I'm losing my personal battle

My only enemy is myself

As I look out the window

My counsellor asks me again

Why have you come here today?

Her words echo in the awkward silence

I try my very hardest

But I can not utter a word

I listen to her ask me again

But I still stare out the window

She touches me on the arm

I realise I've started to cry

It comes as a shock to me

She hands me a tissue to dry my eyes

This is when I realise

That I have not been silent at all

I've told her all my secrets

And I didn't even know

Everything I've hidden inside for so long

Is all out for her to see

The darkness inside

Has managed to escape

The personal battle

I've been in for so long

Now seems easier to win
