Deep Within Poem by YasminAj Sesinyi

Deep within,
where tears can not reach and eyes can not see.
Where pretence is felt and loneliness experienced.
That is where i shall hide my pain.
.
I may be called an introvert and a nerd,
nouns are just naming words,
they do not describe.
.
There where blood can not reach and oxygen can not go through,
i have told our story over and over again.
My heart is cloudy,
my tongue pregnant with words.
My mouth is sore,
I wish to express what is deep inside.
.
I have no guts,
yes that i know.
I'm too weak to hold your hand and tell you to stay,
i'm too shy to even say.
.
But dear,
deep within.
That is where i will store up my pain until i find courage,
but believe me,
when that day comes,
i shall smile and tell you;
its from deep within!
