I have spent

So.


Many.


Years.



hiding my tears from everyone.

I discovered today that

                                           even when alone


(not a human soul in sight)


                                i hide from myself.

(i cover my face

          and turn away)
Realizations. Discoveries. Trying to stay Happy and Strong for too long.

P.S. I was crying over my dog. I had made the decision to say goodbye. A poem will eventually come about her and me and us...but I have a tough time really digging into my soul, so that may be a long time in coming.
