Not Even You. Poem by You... don't... want me...

Not Even You.

Rating: 5.0


No one to talk to,
No one to trust,

With secrets so dark and deep
I have answer beyond which you seek

I hermit away, shut off from the world
Talking to no one about what i've done, seen or heard

But you would not know this, by looking at me
I am someone different, to the one you see

For now i don't have any friends
For now i have no one to talk to
For now i have no one to trust...
No one at all, Not even you.

To me this poem speaks of betrayal. I love how it explores it without revealing it. Very ingenious.

Sounds as though you're having a hard time of it Janay. Though I seem to remember having similar feelings of despondency when I was your age. Life gets better, I can assure you. I like your expression 'I hermit away', it's original and interesting. And you're right. We all wear masks to hide our deepest feelings. I guess it's a way of saving face in a scary world. Keep writing. It's a great way to let go of stress. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
