How I Keep Hidden
I hide myself in the movies; the clips
Once I retreat from serenity
I jump into the joys of notes across a bar line
Once the tempo and its tranquility strikes
I resort to old ways
Soothing and fluent
Thoughts flow from topic to wisdom
Then the cavern in my stomach overturns
My throat feels heavy
I can barely breath
I try to run through it
But the tears stay lodged in my throat
Taking its time to reveal themselves
But they never appear
Just the linger of depression subsides
But it stays masked by writing
I cant even a shed a tear anymore
How much I've changed...
This poem is about:
Me
My family
My community
My country
Our world
