Bravery
i think it's dreadful how you
always seem to have a moment
for yourself yet never make a
second for those of us who
care
how you always look around you
and see those in the shadows who
hide from your view yet never lift
your head high enough to see the
others
how you make sure that when you
leave the door is locked, the shutter
closed, the windows tied tight to the
hinges but never seek to see if you
are whole
what i would give to see you in your
lonesome and to tell you that there is
no more need to be afraid, but i was
never that brave to see you for myself
was i?
