I Want To Hide

I want to hide here Under the dark-clouded sky For I have exposed my soul With what I have said And the looming, dark, gray Can cover my nakedness. I am shivering Because it is cold here Being unveiled and cringing And my cloud-clothes Are only vapors But their rain may wash me clean Perhaps their rain will wash me clean. I wonder: Is this how anyone else feels after you've revealed too much about yourself?
