untitled

I built this wall around me

A protection from the outside world

Leaving all emotions trapped inside

Leaving stories untold

Shine a gleaming smile

A mask for all to see

For who would care to know

What’s going on inside me

So I turn to this blank page

Ink ready in hand

To tell what I’ve come to know

And where I choose to stand

Confusion builds up

As I sort the chaos in my mind

Trying to find those words

That I just can’t seem to define

Am I happy or am I sad

I don’t quite seem to know

Perhaps this is the reason

I am not letting my emotions show

Maybe I should stay

Though I really want to go

Will I make it there?

It’s a chance I wont blow

I don’t know where I am going

Or what I’m supposed to do

Am I running away

From everything that I knew?

Only I have that answer

Somewhere inside my head

So I will continue searching

For all those words left unsaid

So right here I show to you

The me hiding within these walls

Letting some light shine through

As I let some of the bricks fall

You’ll see a little glimpse

Of the little girl scared inside

But somehow I’m still at ease

For from you there’s no need to hide
