A Return to Hiding

how do you know when you have revealed too much?

Who has seen

the truth peeking out of my heart

revealing itself to the light of day?

What voice convinced me

it was a good idea

to confess so much?

When did it begin?

Where are my barriers?

How was I stripped naked?

Now

is the time to move back into the shadows,

to cover myself with fallen leaves.

Alone and lonely, but safe.

Barriers we all have. Sharing we try. Knowledge is limited. All of us has that loneliness You just express it so well as you write.LL

I don't know why my words have a line going through them--they are meant to be read.

Even in escape there is no escape. This painful expression of fearing vulnerability is a "catch 22." Your questions raise important questions-~~-is it better to be safe and unhappy or to allow the questions to lead you to higher ground? It's a choice. I wonder if this poem is finished. It makes me ask-~~-now what?

I couldn't agree more with all of the comments. It is sad that such an excellent piece writing must come from such pain and vulnerability. I hope you are well. xx
