What Lies Beneath the Surface
Those who know me
know I have nothing to hide
but do they truly konw
what's hidden deep inside
A secret so dark
not a soul I would tell
for fear of what would happen
if on it their minds did dwell
A mystery to all
to all but me
my misguided friends
my blind family
Nobody notices
what's hidden below
it's a maze of sorts
through which none can go
None but me
that is of course
only I have the key
to this locked door
I'm scared to share
it hurts to hide
impossible to get rid of
I know, I've tried
I wish I could
but those I've shown
have left or not cared
leaving me to deal alone
This poem is about:
Me
