Inside Me


You say you want

Some insight

Just a little peek inside

But be careful

What you wish for

There's a reason

That I hide

My emotions are

Ever flowing

There's no controlling

Them this time

That's why I built

These walls and halls

To keep them in my mind

I've sown my mouth shut

At least a million times

To keep myself

Inside me

Hidden for all time
