to get it off my chest. i wrote it down. and now its on my mind

[capturedintime]

you always hurt inside
seeing all things both dark and bright
with a friend who sang of good things that end
you exchange a thought seemingly delightful
but theres a critic of himself under this smile

silence is only for your health
i'd often tell myself
but it might be this silence
rotting a character whose been stuck in a shell

.......................................................................
rethink this choice
enable the possibilities to shine
bare, in the truth,
over wants and dreams of mine
under the influence of time
never stopping to look inside
deny never giving this world a try

please remember once you've got this far
your joy and sorrow cannot be anywhere
except for where you are
........................................................................

a coward is only good for conrasting, and therefore giving definition to the brave.
