What I've Never Told You

53 10 1
                                    

I've never told you
I lie awake at night
And stare at peeled paint
On the ceiling white.

I've never told you
The thoughts in my head.
The worries and wonders,
I hide them instead.

I never told you
How little you know.
You think I am simple
But that isn't so.

Maybe I'll tell you;
Someday, I'll try.
But for now, I'm a mystery,
A secret,
A lie.
