Poem: I never meant to come on strong,
I never meant that you were wrong,
Just sometimes it's so hard to speak
Straight from the heart, I feel so weak.
My words don't flow as others' will
I hide behind this wall so real,
I speak at times without my mind
Take risks of losing the truly kind.
I fear what most have come to see
They're braver than I'll ever be,
Trust is but a heavy load.
To me a long and scary road.
Many things leave me afraid,
For many times my heart has paid.
To know that's life not what we see
Yet more, what it can truly be...
