Array ( [sid] => 75860 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => What this was all about [time] => 2004-12-15 08:44:08 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I want to tell you all the things that I feel
I want you to see the world that is real

But I keep everything shut up inside
I don’t want you to know the truth that I lied

Would love me if you saw who I am, if you knew
I push you away because I’m afraid to lose you

I want you to see all the things I’ve seen
I want to take you to the places I’ve been

So that you understand why I can’t tell
and see with your own eyes there really is a hell

My insides are ripped apart, I’m not even whole
Emptyness fills the space where there should be a soul

Only shreds of a past follow me here
And a distant future that will never be near

Keeping it to myself is the only thing I can do
It’s impossible, the task of trying to tell you

I’ll never let you know the fragile, little girl that is me
Under the mask of fake confidence and makeup you see

What I will tell you is that I try so hard everyday
To tell you what’s going through my head, I just want to say

Have patience and maybe one day words will come out
That day you’ll know what this all was about

What this was all about

Really good write. I enoyed it even though it was sad.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
