Locked Away From You

locking myself away

I always hid
my feelings
from you,
because
I was
scared
of what
you might
think,

I covered
up
the
scars
and the
notebooks,
of all
the pain
that wrenched
at my heart
because I
didn't want
you to see,

I'd rather
lock myself
away
in a dungeon
than to hear
you ask
" What's wrong? "
because
I don't want
anyone to see
me like this...

Alone and confused,
with no one to
comfort me
because I'm terrified,

Terrified  of what
you think of me
now that were
through,
its not the same
now that were
just
friends...

I just wish
I could have opened
myself
up to you,
instead of
keeping it all
bottled up
inside...

[Beautifully Tragic xPoe..]

Not entirely crazy about the style you chose to write this... but it was an easily understood, easy to read piece. Sounds like a few past relationships. People these days are too afraid to open up to anyone so they hide everything inside them, which is not exactly a good thing. One way or another it has to come out or it just boils up. Great write.
