Internal Discussion Poem by Madelene Calalo

Internal Discussion

Rating: 5.0


Who are you behind what people see?
Who are you beyond what you declare to be?

How long have you hidden the truth about thee?
The truth that has long been forgotten;
The truth that you yourself now disbelieve.

"Who are you? "
I cry to Me.
But the mirror has no means to speak.
It only shows what I need to see -
A child lost in society.

You know how we sometimes get lost in life. The pressures of society consumes you, then the passions you once had as a child are forced shut. Yeah.That's just basically it.
