I'm afraid
scared inside
yet, my feelings
I well hide.
Worried thoughts
tears I hold
inner pain
left untold.
Panic grips
my heart tight
as I weep
alone at night.
How I got here
I don't know
yet, my fears
will never show.
Those who read
the words I write
share the secrets
of my fright.
Face to face
you'll never see
the real person
trapped in me.

The Real Me

I'm afraid

I well hide.
Worried thoughts
tears I hold
inner pain
left untold.
Panic grips
my heart tight
as I weep

How I got here
I don't know

Those who read

of my fright.
Face to face
you'll never see
the real person
trapped in me.

There are so many people walking around everyday who hide how they feel inside. You expressed your feelings very real, and genuine in your poem. You are not alone. Hang in there...

Don't feel alone in your thoughts, becasue you are most certainly not, my friend. Very insightful, very 'real.' Excellent job, spoken as only a poet could speak, and only could a poet really understand.

Truly,
-V.S.

excellent rhytem in the poem, feels kinda breathy at times, which is cool, cos it shows the mental state of the writer, (probably)
Anyways great write, and write more greats

Very interesting write. I can relate to that pretty well. I think most poets can. It is harder to say things the way we do on paper for some reason. Nice. Keep it up mate. Thanks for sharing this work of art.
