I’ve worked so hard

To hide the truth

To Say i am fine

I’m just like you

I’m normal, I’m happy

I’m free and I’m glad

I’m perfect and jolly

No sad thing to be had

Don’t see me,Don’t notice

I’m quaking in my shoes

I’m broken and I’m saddened

But really it’s no news

Everyone has stories

Secrets they won’t confide

But what of mine

Do tell do tell

But first an important line

Im not ashamed of me

I have my scars to bare

I tell you now

Friend or foe hear me now

My story is mine dare I bare

My moments and experiences

Will I help another soul

Will it heal me within

The words out cant go back in

Exposed after hiding for so long

love poems
