I dare not look too closely inside where lurking, darkest feelings hide behind the shards of glass pretending to be mirrors they threaten to sever all my emotions Instead I drift with aimless thoughts kept neat and tidy, as in a box tied up with strings crafted by the years of endless sorrow never to see the light of day where my deepest yearnings lie too fragile for to give away and risk losing myself forever

I dare not look too closely inside where lurking, darkest feelings hide behind the shards of glass pretending to be mirrors they threaten to sever all my emotions Instead I drift with aimless thoughts kept neat and tidy, as in a box tied up with strings crafted by the years of endless sorrow never to see the light of day where my deepest yearnings lie too fragile for to give away and risk losing myself forever
