» Poem: Holding Back
Holding Back
written by twistedmind33

Disagreement is on my mind
I want to say my opinions
But I fear the outcome
Your feelings would change
If only you knew the real me
No one knows me
Not even me
There’s so much I want to say
I just end up talking to myself
Why is it this way?
Why do the lines of communication fail?
Humane conversations are out of the question
Things can never be normal between us
The laws of nature won’t allow it
All forces are against me
Everyone wants to see me fail
They’re not getting what they want
I’m lying to myself
Do they really think I’ll tell the truth?
I’ve become so used to the life I live
Nothing will break my shell
You’re holding me back from the edge
Just waiting for me to fall
