Whats your biggest mistake?
Never to be known, I said
As a smile grew on my face
To be known is to be vulnerable
And I'd rather not know myself
Not let them get close enough
To see the hurt beneath my eyes
Then to admit
My true soul
In all its glory
In all the tears it earned
In all the misery it enjoyed
To be known is to be loved
He said
I agree i thought
But deep inside I know
A men would never be the one
I'd like to know
As these words leave my pen
It hurts
In my soul my head my stomach
I might throw up i might not live
After a confession so selfish
"Oh child, to love is not to know
But to believe in the hope
To heal every broken soul"
