i want to speak so many things,
but i feel like people will judge.
judge my mind, my whole being.
i'm human too, aren't i? it's just
difficult for me to express,
what i want to say.
that's all.

tears fall, up against the wall
my demons are down the hall.
tonight i need a friend, to stay
and tell me, "it's okay."

love is like a band-aid,
that you'll never want
to ever, ever take off.
even at your worst
days, your love
is there. shining,
like the brightest
star.

i keep my lips zipped close.
people judge me, don't they?
at least, that's all i hear.
the whispers of judgement,
and i'm scared.
