inside Me

Title says it all

Inside me is a hoard of secrets
that lie beneath my skin

Inside me is a prisoner
yearning for emancipation

Inside me is a used handkerchief
saturated with sorrowful tears

Inside me is an acoustic guitar
sounding sweet melodies of harmony and peace

Inside me is a diary
Filled with empty thoughts

Inside me a one dollar note
Expressing the life I've lived

Inside me is a raging flame
Disguising my melancholy and fear

Inside me is a lily symbolising death
Sprouting within my soul

Inside me is a frail heart beating slowly
To the rhythm of a damaged metronome

Inside me is the pain of an abused child
Fighting for freedom
