You Hide Poem by Shannon Martin

You hide in doubt when things may not always go your way
You hide the way you feel...so it don't seem so real
but that doesn't mean you need to run away

At some point you need to face reality
you have locked your emotions away and hid the key.

You hide in sorrow so Life won't feel so real
because it's sometimes hard to deal.
You try to leave some of your past behind,
Even erasing it from your mind

Some things may have you blaming yourself,
Even though there was just nothing you could of done
You just go with the hand your dealt


You hide what's on your mind so no one will know
You hide what you really want to say because your just too afraid
You will never forget the memories even the one's that haunt you
Yesterday is gone, yet tomorrow is too far away
You are living life for today...but life it too short
Isn't that what they say?
