Before you think nothing’s forbidden
I’m an iceberg, I’m mostly hidden
Like the one that sunk the Titanic
Deceiving me only creates a high panic
Tryna persuade me into sabotage
I’d rather hide away and camouflage
Now that it’s no secret to you
Hollow apologies are see-through
Some say my mind’s all twisted
Had a direction, guess I missed it
Be aware of the tornado
My vortexes control where they go
You see I’m no longer hurtin’
Your words are no longer burnin’
Glad I’m longer the burden
In that *** you continue to stir in
You know I have to say
If you’re gonna be in my way
Against my mind; the tsunami wave
Good luck if you’re so-called brave
Destroying you with my words
As if you’ve been split into thirds
Nothing violence would achieve
But I’d be careful who you deceive
Got you turning in your sleep
As you try not to weep
Silence is the best ever gold
For you it’s better to be stone cold
Shoot your blank shots at me
Don’t make me your enemy
You’ll get rebounds in return
All you’ll end up as is burnt
Keep your mouth shut
No gentle utters or anything but
Unless you want to face the horn
From the beast that’ll rip you torn
'The Hidden' is probably one of my most impacting pieces of to and is a perfect indication of how my mind and brain work. It's now one of my favourite poems that I've written, which had several phrases circling in my head trying to find a match which kept me busy.
'The Hidden' has messages throughout that should be clear to the reader which of course is dependable with how the reader takes them. The prominent one being myself getting underestimated, misunderstood and then judged, which leads to my reaction in words poetically.
