Secrets Secrets

~Poetry~

I have been having
Thoughts that cause myself some pain
Doubts that didn’t exist

Now creeping on in
I’m not sure what to make of
But they don’t feel good

I was quite certain
I knew I wanted you, but
Now I ask, do you?

If I cannot be
What you think you need me to
Then will you leave too?

I can’t be other
Than what I am here today
I know what I know

Now I do wonder
I fear I have misled you
And you perhaps me

What has been changed
Only the thoughts in our heads
Our beliefs of us

The reality
We face has not been altered
We are as we were

Yet, how different
Do we now feel? Did it die?
Killed by our thoughts

Can love survive it?
The harsh dissection of thought
Or will it bleed out

Thank You For Reading

  1. How often do we think we know someone and find that we don’t, that our vision of them is false? And we wonder if they feel the same. Relationships are hard
