My World

Folder: 
Personal Poems

A world of humor.

A world of lies.



Although I may act normal,

Like nothing is wrong.

For those who look a long,

Might notice the trouble.



Put the focus on everyone else,

Laugh and act like it is all normal.

Inside there is only trouble.



The nagging thoughts I want to share,

And wish I had the nerve to tell.

Secrets I want to be heard,

Things that would make life so much easier.



Yet I cannot bring myself to say,

The trouble the plagues me these days.



My world is a lie.

I act like someone I’m not.

And hide in the laughter and fun it creates.

I know that it will catch up to me someday.

Yet I keep running, hoping it won’t me this day.



How would I bring myself to say it?

Just two simple words.

How would they react to its coming?

And what’s the fallout of its passing.



The stares from people,

The secret no friend I know could keep.

Everyone would know, so I won’t say it.

Yet I tell myself I want everyone to know,

Accept it or fuck it.



But it’s hard enough now,

Why add to the pain.



I live in a black world,

No light to show me away.

My lies are the clouds covering the sun.

Everything is dead, nothing can live.



Lies bring pain.

Lies bring hurt.

Nothing good will ever come from them.



One simple statement would clear up the day,

Life would grow,

And I could grow up.



Could I tell them?

Would they never talk to me again?

Would they care?

Would things stay the same?



So many questions,

And not one single answer.



If I only knew,

It’s what everyone says.



Will I say that in a few years:

"If I only told them then."



Or will I be happy I said nothing.



For now my world remains black,

But for how long can that last.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

It's at the tip of my tongue, yet my lips are sealed. I wish I could say it, I really do, but this poem is as close as I feel safe doing, although I hope people do ask, maybe ill have the nerve to come clean.
