Opaqueness speaks to me, stark and singular
"You are alone and you did not see"
Spurring me, I suppose, to hide secrets in myself
But I spit out the thought, like mud flung into my mouth

I always wanted to be trustworthy
To lay out my insides for everyone to see
Because that is the piece I wanted to be
And those are the people I want next to me

But next to me, I wonder who's there
My eyes flit back and forth, aware
That secrets lay behind these walls
I passed one by, just down that hall...
