Across the hardened surface
With lines that etch my face
And many a time played on them
And my story hidden with grace
I see you there coming
Unknown whom you are
Why do I feel a connection?
Trying desperately not to go far
And here is a simple question
Something that is of common place
They ask just a little detail
Drawing closer at their own pace
But what if my life imitates
Just what I grew up in
And this "nice person" again
Is a monster, with a hidden sin
Not again, that little girl cries
Fear again making her run
Silence just a golden moment
Stomach showing fear, sickness, no fun
So as you sit and look
You just hid your feelings within
Waiting for just the right moment
When maybe you can let that nice person in.
A subconsious comparison I always make - is this new person like him? The level of fear is HUGE. A new person today ask me to share something that would lead them to this site. I went silent....I am waiting for the right moment...just to see what they say.
Things I have gotten in the past:
Walking away
This is a confronting site
I could not read it
Amazing
People no longer speaking to me
Anger and frustration
Screams
Wonderful responses
Tears
People reading this site without my permission which devestated me
People adding their own story
Other assorted comments
"Im sorry"
I am always surprised at the responses. I have told many.
