The true me

The true me

 

This is my secret life, my writing and my thoughts.

I can hide between the lines and never found out.

 

Could I be brave enough to expose my deepest desires?

Could I be so bold?

 

For now between the lines, I am free to be me.

To be the one who has no regrets to share my needs and desires with only me.

 

Please be kind in your words and remember I am not who I wish to be.

I hide in my words afraid to come into the light.

 

This is who I am for now. Nevertheless, in the corner of my mind when I am alone in the dark, I am the true me that no one can clearly see.

I felt like this could be directed at all kinds of people and they would all understand what you're saying. I like the flow you created with this piece, it falls into a very nice rhythm. I also like the ending how you took a subject matter and managed to make it unique and original at the same time.

Thank you. This was more of a question to my self on things I need to answer. Thank you for your words.

Of all the ones you send to me why didn't you send me this one? I love it..

You know the true self that comes out in writing is very a significant being. I write a lot from within the person that is seen on the outside. This is deeply moving and meaningful from where I sit.. Never stop penning your deepest secrets.. Its where the best creativity comes from..

Ron, you are a man after my own heart, I have been writing for only a short time, I have two novels ( work in progress) and only recently joined Writers Cafe to let others read my work-I'm glad I did, it is a great line-'I am the true me that no one can clearly see' I look forward to reading more.

I see a true poet and a gentle soul even in your darkened days. Accepting ourselves is hard indeed and when we do we become so confident and change many things around us...A very good write ...:)

[ron]

Thank you. Im not sure where this jurney will take me but I will stay on its couse for as longas I have the will and strength to do so.

[Sami Khalil]

Same here , sir...You are welcome...:)

To thine own self be true, and all else shall be easier to explain and accept. It is good to write of who you really are! But first, you must understand and accept who you are. You owe yourself that!!

[ron]

I am begining to find out things about my self that I did not know or at the very least was afraid to see. Writing helps in the jurney.

I think this is how a lot of people feel now-a-days. Especially writers and poets. With the way the world is today, with all the peer pressure, people aren't accepted for who they are as much as they should be. Writing gives us an out. Where we can be whoever we want whenever me want, and not worry about people pointing fingers.
Great poem. :)

Thank you. I find myself opening up more and more. To be honest Im a little scarid to see my true self sometimes. Its not something Im use to. I would love to find another poet/writer to help me reach in and show me who I am. Mybe some one will see my writings and ask to help me.

[Wall of Words]

It's very important for us to find who me are... I think it helps us understand why we do think, and why we feel certain ways... Good luck on finding yourself. I'm glad you are opening up slowly. It's nice to know people for who they really are, whether it be through writing or other means. :)

Thank you. I will try.

Express yourself...it's worth seeing the true you... what is inside your heart. :)

[ron]

I try to do that through my writings. The true me may need to be coaxed by another writer, as I believe only another writer can truely undrestand and not pass judgment on me.

[Quill~]

it does help, I agree. :)

[ron]

:) THank you.

[Quill~]

:) nicely done.
