*Sigh*

Like a jacket I want to be
cloaked so no one can see or hear me
the inner workings or thoughts I spell
things I've thought or things I've felt

Everyone's got their deepest fumes
in the belly in the head in the heart they loom
is sharing the burden of making others feel it too
complaining isn't necessary, just keep it inside you

so many people in this world, all of us have thoughts
feelings fears hopes dreams worrys regrets happiness sadness
madness badness pureness innocentness everythingness
so why come on here and tell strangers what we've sought

this anonymity has it's advantage
but I have to wonder if half the fear isn't
that we're sharing with others,
but that we've just notified ourselves...

welcome to life - no one said it would be easy - we've all got our problems, some less than others some more, reaching out for those who understand
it's not complaining
its compassion
say what you will
say what you will
