Let You In: A Poem

What if I say that I’ve lost all hope?
                That I’ve given up on everything in this life?
                                And what if I say that it’s entirely your  fault
                                                Because you were the one who pushed me?
What if I say that I am still searching?
                Because I don’t know where I belong?
                                And what if I say that I may never find
                                                The only thing that may save me?
What if I say that I’m living a lie?
                And all that I’m doing is trying to hide
                                The person that I really am?
                                                That you may never know?
What if I say that I’m tired of trying?
                To be someone I know  that I can’t?
                                And what if I say that I’m dying?
                                                To let you in on the truth?
What if I say that it’s over?
                It’s time for the secrets to end?
                                I’ve waited for this scary day

                                                When I finally let you in.

  1. Very nice. You got me thinking about what other people might think of me. you are a really nice and outgoing young woman. Sometimes I think about this but I dont know how to put it into words. You did my job by putting it into words for me.
