No One Knows
No one knows, I’ve not let them in.
I wouldn’t know how to start,
or where to begin.
How do you tell someone that it may be the end?
And who do you tell,
one who’s been a friend?
No one knows I’ve told not a soul.
My secret is as black
as midnight coal.
Though it’s not a good thing, and it I’d love to be rid,
I can’t toss away
my being – my id.
No one knows of the hate I possess.
Nor of the loneliness
that I often caress.
Nor of the fact, that I’ve made up my mind,
to put an end to my misery,
and pray that it’s peace I finally find.
