Hidden

By ashottothetemple

Alone,

Hidden in a dark corner of the room

Dressed in black

Sheek and silverish outline

Overlapping a shadow

Hiding a secret

Deep in a chasm

Locked away tight

No one can say

Shhh child

Just never

Tell your friends

Never lend a hand

No one will

Ever understand

It's your shame

That made you hide

Made you feel

Afraid inside

Might as well be bound

To what your eyes trick

Haunting you

Brutal visions

Making you sick

Fresh smell

Of blood

Of sickness

In your throat

Crawling up you

Slowly inside

Creeping outside

Violent shakes soon follow

Gut wrenching feeling

You had to hide

Couldn't let it out

Your pain

Your pain..

Binds you inside

Bleeds you outside.
