Why do I sit here
Waiting for some late hour
Why do I hide
What should be shown
What's made me who I am
Is it friends
Is it family
Or is it just me.
An image I've created
An image so hard to delete
I hide from them
And I hide from myself.
When fear grips me
I push it away
Why aknowledge it,
When I can ignore it.
Some emotions
Fought so hard into suppression
Huddle in the corner
Unsure of what to do,
When the time comes for them to show
How do I coax them
How do I tell them I want them
How do I do this,
When I'm still battling an image
How can this image be shattered and tossed aside
Will I ever break down
Or will I suppress for so long I won't know how
Will someone come that can shove the image away
Or will it be forever in place
Because I force it there

Please tell me what you think

  • Good use of emotion in this one
    This is something I think many can relate to

    Just a suggestion though, but to make it look/read better, I would break it up into stanzas and also work on my use of punctuation. Of course, that's just my opinion though.
