Lost Soul

Location

 

The fear of visually displaying yourself to others

The fear of not being accepted for who you are

The fear of living behind closed doors that are locked and

Bolted from the world outside

 Inside feelings are free beyond your control

Outgoing, crazy,weird,fearless, everything you

 Want yourself to be

Timid, shy, quiet, everything you appear to be

Is that you

Or is that me

Crying to yourself until you fall asleep

Another person inside your dreams or

Another person you appear to be

Who's behind that curtain

Answer me please

Shaking, shattering, gasping for air, leeching out,

Almost here

I am me and you are you

The curtains drifts and ravels in thin air

I am from behind the curtain

I am me.
