PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

My words are hidden inside me,

Like a secret, underground,

My dreams are trapped within,

Waiting to be found,

My heart and my true feelings,

Are left behind a wall,

Cowering in fear of discovery,

And inevitably, the fall,

My hopes, they lay deserted,

Crawling in the dark,

And as I look at you, I'm frozen,

Not knowing where to start,

My courage is barely existent,

Why exactly isn't clear,

And my love, it seems to die,

As I sit and listen here,

My thoughts are filled with wonder,

And my voice is way too quiet,

Desires are quickly silenced,

I know inside, but I haven't tried it,

The truth, it is unwanted,

My needs are not important,

And I am quite susceptible,

Of this, there is no warrant,

My faith has been dragged through the dust,

There is nowhere to go but straight,

Thinking this should have passed long ago,

And now, it may be too late.
