I leave nothing
between the lines
my heart on stage
for all to see
I hear you speak
I hear the secrets
a lowered voice
regrets you hide
you could scream
if you wished
I already hold
a million secrets
they are not heavy
they do not crush
I have been there
choking tears
I held it in
held it too long
now I reject
every silent fear

I like this poem. It seems a fitting on for a poet such as you. The message is clear to the reader as well as from the speaker. Scream vs. Silence and acceptance.and encouragement.
I was a mental health counselor so I don't believe in holding feeling in.
