Its the pain you never know that hurts your soul, <br />Or the burden you invisibly bear that torments your spirit, <br />Dont keep hatred in you saying you don't want war, <br />When you know deep down your heart you can feel it, <br />Its the trap you ignore that makes you fall, <br />Or the small problems you tend not to show that extinguishes your glow, <br />Dont keep grudges in your heart saying you don't want a fight, <br />Though yet you know its a burden you cant carry through the night, <br />Its the feelings you are scared to show that keeps your e <br />mbers low, <br />Or the unexpressed words inside your chest might make you vex more, <br />Dont pretend you dont want to be vile when you know the fury is going to last for a while. <br /> <br />Fights we always thought but never fought hinders us from buying the freedom we would have bought, <br />And the tears we are ashamed to cry floods our psyches and drowns our hearts.<br /><br />Shamba Kaunda<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/feelings-we-are-afraid-to-show/
