a Letter To Those Out There


hello.

let me say one more thing before i go.

i am a twin,

a friend,

a daughter,

a believer,

a writer 

and an artist...

but you do not know me.

hello.

let me say one more thing before i go,

i am trying

i am failing

i am dying

i am breaking

i am worthless

i am aching.

and still you do not know me

hello.

let me say one thing before you go.

i am sorry

i am quiet

but  do nothing; 

to break the silence.

so still you do not know me.

i swore my soul to secrecy. 

none of this is real,

none of this is me.

i can't speak what's in my head

why don't you get it!can't you see?

no one will ever know me, i don't trust. 

so i don't speak.

Just your typical geek. If you care to look deeper though...You can see the layers I have created. The worlds I call my own live in my imagination. Creating riddles and poems and lives and characters to become and get lost in. No one knows me, or at least the me behind the blinds. PLEASE COMMENT instagram=tamingofseawolves
