He has shared his past,

But I have not shared mine.

I do not,

Have a perfect life.

At the moment,

It seems surreal,

The opposite of everything,

I've been through.

My boulders of green,

Still rest heavily,

On my shoulders.

It's my time,

To open my heart,

Because he has no idea,

That I've been lying to him.

Hopefully,

He will not pull his blanket,

Over his eyes again.
