my inner thoughts

My inner thoughts are usually hidden
Belonging to no one else; they’re mine alone
Few pry, recognizing my need to remain silent
My wisdom is covert; in my mind’s safety deposit box
I do slather my inner thoughts onto a page sometimes
Holding my breath, wondering about other people’s reactions
