feelings kept inside

Hard to admit,

hard to face the facts.

Able to ruin something so good,

yet, not wanting to take the chance.

Thoughts take a toll on us,

keeping quiet is the best I can do.

not knowing the ending,

and so tired of pretending.

It is hard living inside of your self, keeping every one out. I have been doing this for a long time. To let some one in just a little takes a leap of faith that they won't hurt you. Nicely written.

I know by being old. We are more sad for things not tried than mistakes made. I like the above statement. Fear of taking chances leave us wishing we did. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
