Feelings denied <br />And thoughts hidden <br />Roaming in a strange land of diversions, <br />I once thought to be forbidden <br /> <br />Why do i choose this? <br />Why can't I let this wound show? <br />The pain in my past <br />Is more than you'll ever know <br /> <br />Leave me and don't look back- <br />I'd be mortified if you did <br />I will always long to tell you, <br />But I can't live down what I have always hid <br /> <br />'Why can't you tell me? ' you ask, <br />As my faults start to show <br />Well, I think to myself, you'd hate me if I did <br />I respond, 'It's harder than you know'<br /><br />Samantha Stough<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/more-than-you-know-2/
