"What's wrong? Are you mad at me?"

"Is it something I did? What?"

"Why are you so happy? Who is it? hmm?"

"You're never THIS sad, what's wrong, tell me!"

Don't I have a right...

To feel these things...

Without being questioned?

Like you do?

Or is it just too much to ask of you

To let me figure myself out

For me

And keep my life secret

Until I am willing to share it with you

I love my friends...

But they all seem to want

So much more from me than I can give

They want to know why I am

What I am

And why I'm feeling

All the emotions that are normal..

For a human being to feel.

Must I explain myself to you

Over and over again?

Must I open my life

And put down my defenses

So that everyone can know

What I'm like inside?

It's not right!

What you do to me is wrong.

I am who I am because of things

And I will change

Just like you

So don't take me for granted

And don't take advantage of my kindness

I love you, my friends but please

Let me share with you

What I will

And give me time to heal

And share the rest

When I am ready to.
