Holes

Empty holes

All here inside

Tears are bound

To burst me wide.

Why can’t I find

My way with friends

And trust their love

Won’t quickly end?

So much fear

And shame in me

I feel like all

Around can see.

I hide in shadow

From all who care

I don’t know how

To meet them there.

Empty holes

All here inside

The pain and fear

Will burst me wide.
