Allowed to Know

How can you accept me when I can't accept myself

My darkest secrets kept deep in my heart

Things you can't be allowed to know

You think you have all of me but there's too much you couldn't

Understand to ever have me whole

The wants and needs of my heart are too much for me to bear

It contains all the things you're never allowed to know

Sometimes it feels like my chest is full of quick sand

And my heart can barely continue to beat

If only I can unload this weight without putting it on you

There's just somethings in my heart you're never ever allowed to know

There might be desires I could let go if I pray for release

I've never been the praying kind or the kind to ask for help

But I'll do what it takes to relieve the weight on my terribly heavy heart

Does that mean telling you? Is that something I could bring myself to do?

Maybe someday I could tell you all the things you're not allowed to know
