The darkness of night calls to me
Leaving me with the trees trembling in the wind
As the creatures lurk in the shadows
Away from the light the moon cast
The stars shine brightly in the great distance
Questions still not asked and some never thought of
Answers that don’t settle but stir the wildness I fight back so hard
To contain what I fear the most about myself
I want to feel the rain
To be weighted down by water instead of my thoughts
Feeling assured and free instead of chained and clouded
I want to hear the wind howl
To be the push and pull of a force that’s not my own
Feeling the constant motion instead a tug-o-war
I want the trees to hide me
To be concealed from the world
Feeling that I’m safe instead of being exposed
I want the moon to stay in the sky
To bask in the pale glow that it cast on me
Feeling alive instead of hallow like a shell
I can’t explain what my future might hold
Unsure of what I want it to be
I can’t correct my past because the chance has come and gone
I’m scared to admit to others
Let alone myself
But if I do – Will it be true?
Everyone is shallow and greedy
Possessive over material items, the power, the money
They wish to control what they can
Me?
I wish to possess no such things
Honesty, trust, and safety is what I seek
I’m so unsure of myself
I’m usually confident and independent
Now, I’m cowering in the corner of my head
Hiding. |
