Should I say it?
If I write it
Once I do it
No turning back

It will be there
Carved forever
A clear window
Into my soul

They may see me
Deep inside me
They might know me
The covers off

Once I tell it
I won’t own it
We will share it
And disagree

Will they love me
Or abhor me
Does it matter
When I can sing?

The worst story
Would be knowing
That they saw me
And looked away
