Whispers Within


So much on my mind
Too much to hold in
I try to share stories
But shut down again

Time after time
Beginning to end
Nobody listens
Unless.... about them

So I Write

My mind is in wonder
It thinks of the past
Little girl locked inside
Wants freedom at last

So what now?
The world's still spinnin'
Everyone seems scattered 
Little girls become smitten

Lost in a maze
Running about
Stuck in a pattern 
To find no way out

So I Wait....

Wonderful,I can connect, when you said so much on my mind,too much to hold in absolutely right, many things we just want to speak out but we don't we just bury them...
