Emotional Fear
I hide in my room for I am ashamed.
My memories are with me, forever reclaimed.
I keep my secrets locked away from you.
Oh how I wish, that you could be true.
If you were to see me as I see myself,
You would say to yourself,
What a man! Great help he must need!
Face his emotions and took greater heed.
And if you were to go into my room
It's so dark, awful and so full of gloom;
Should you discover my secrets and shame,
Would you stay with me, and play in my game?
Would you look straight into my eye
And accept me truly whatever am I?
Or would you run, scared and afraid
That my destiny may not yours invade.
So I'll not invite you to my private shell,
Where eternal damnation is a real living hell.
Leave me alone, let me construe
That one day I might... live normally too.
PS: Not with this darn heat !!!!
