Ease

As the sun rays pass through my window
Lighting upon the scattered papers
My heart feels at ease
This hidden away happiness and peace
Has found its own door to unlock
Buried deep in my heart
The secrets I kept inside me
Now find their way to my mouth
Spilling them in front of someone I barely know
Yet even by exposing myself so bare
I don't feel ashamed, I feel at comfort
Perhaps it is because, this "someone" listens to me
Without judging, without saying anything
This silence has stayed with me for many years
As I turn to look
I realize its me
Comforting myself at ease
