Question and question and question
Me, Closed off because I don’t
Want to break down in front of you
Every time I see you.

Closed off Because
I believe…
There’s more to life than
Problem after problem
Struggle after struggle.
Failure after failure.

Because I… Believe in hope
Because I’d rather talk about the beauty
Seen in the lives around me
Hope and pain and hurt all around in other people
And you want me to talk about myself..

Maybe I am closed off,
Because I don’t want to
Carry a box of mirrors.
