| Don't Be Afraid, Because We All Are
|
SweetPain
| We are all in fear of the same thing: | 1 |
exposure. | 2 |
| |
Exposure of ones inner-self; | 3 |
our feelings, | 4 |
motives, | 5 |
desires, | 6 |
and perversions. | 7 |
| |
So withdrawn, | 8 |
into our own insecure psyches | 9 |
we play our own mind games. | 10 |
Where, we then call for the expertise | 11 |
of psychologist (and sometimes a psychotherapist) | 12 |
to play along and figure out our secrets. | 13 |
| |
It all seems so simply | 14 |
pointless | 15 |
to be so hidden. | 16 |
Because, at the base of it all | 17 |
we are all fucked up. | 18 |
| i guess i was wrong, reading this poem now it seems finished. i just changed around stanza 3 and 4. but suggestions are always welcome :D | 15 Sep 05 |
