a dry wetness

hard truth

            A day wetness

 

I pulled the plug but stayed in the tub

Then stood up to take a shower for what seems like hours

Equal to the time that it takes

For a seed to become a flower

But I must have watered this flower

Just a little too much

Because now it’s the one

That no one wants to touch

I didn’t think that I would ever be

So far away from the love that I have come to know

The hardest part is camouflaging my feelings

And the hurt and pain that I try not to show

All inside is this pain of mine

My problems contained inside of my skin

I hurt because I don’t trust anyone

Enough to let anyone in.

You are writing with a theme it seems, poet. The pain of truth. Why is it so hard to be honest with ourselves and show our true feelings whether they be good or bad? You really have me thinking today.
