When I lie alone in bed
Thoughts come and surround me
And I know that I have it,
That I have the courage.
When the morning rolls around
These thoughts slip away
Replaced by different currents
Only to return when
The lonely night visits.
The only time that I'm allowed
To harbor my emotions
Is the lonely time in bed
Waiting for morning to share
While all it does is steal,
Steeling my fears and doubts
When there's no room for distraction.
My secret shadow self
When I feel like I could cry
And have too much pride to do so.
Please tell me what you think

Ah Pride. Either you are too proud to show emotion, or you show emotion and your pride makes you ashamed of it. It's a terrible thing. But I love you.
