Within Myself

Having it all around me is so suffocating, without mercy
the truth will not prevail
I gaze at all possibilities to be free from reality at this time
time of unforgiving 
If I tell, I will fail
my secret becomes a fantasy for those who fear it
Is it the truth you seek, or a dream that you have drempt
your thoughts will not conclude, only wonder

A very intriguing poem, Anthony. The inner conflict your profess is thought provoking. I think this is the first time I have read your work; I look forward to seeing more. Welcome to Poetry Soup, Anthony! Love, Carolyn
