Break Down

I'm so sorry,

what I hide behind curtains could kill you.

What my mind thinks about,

would make you leave.

The things I hide could break you.

That's why I'm so secluded.

Now you know.

Now you understand. 

But what you won't understand,

is why I can't live with myself.

Why I can't tell you much.

I don't want to tear you down,

so instead,

I hold you high as I tear myself apart,

behind these high concrete walls of mine.
