PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

as i wake up in the morning,

i hide my face,

from the problems of the day,

under my covers i wish i could stay,

staying in the darkness,

staying where i know i'll be safe,

staying in my secret place,

as i hide my face,

each day walking around,

with a face i leave inside my dresser drawer,

taking it off each time i come home,

sitting all alone in my secret place,

trying to hide,

from the problems of the day,

from the biggest problem of all,

the day you walked away,

so as i wake up in the morning,

i hide my face,

from the problems of the day,

staying in the darkness,

staying under my covers,

where i know i'm safe,

staying in my secret place.....
