These secrets I keep, Are hidden behind an invisible thread That I've woven around me This thread, Tightly securing All that I hold deep The world may creep up on me, Cast out shadows That ordinarily...would cause a girl to scream But, I'm not afraid of the dark I'm not afraid of much of anything Other than, letting him see the real me My ***** gritty insides The scars that never healed The decomposing lies The dust that flickers past my eyes The ghosts that haunt my mind It's dark, it's morbid Maybe too frightening for anyone to see For once, I want to rip the thread to shreds Let the darkness seep out of me, Like blood in the morgue I want to bury my fear, In a deep grave Lock it up in a tomb, Bar the doors so I can't look back I want to show him who I am Through unfiltered means Without fear, Of what could be.

I like this one, a lot.
