Hidden Self

Somewhere deep, deep within the cold

there are stories left untold.

The vortex swirls and spins,

twisting currents conceal my secrets within.

Tears never cried,

goals beyond reach,

and the life I must hide.

All that I am, all that I'll be,

All of the things I wish I could hold

but can never be set free,

it's all here hidden in the cold.
