Poem #42: "What a foe can't do"

You know me so well already

Maybe even more than my family

But I don't think I told you this before

There are moments where my words don't reach

There is something inside that's too unbearable to tell

But I'm telling you right now and not in speech

Sometimes I feel ashamed of my choices

Whenever I hear their voices

Sometimes I feel forced

Whenever I feel submersed

I feel awful though

Everyday when I think of my foe

It is unlawful though

When I tell secrets that I can't quite tell

You know me so well

But you don't know me enough

And I would like to keep it that way

Even though it sounds too tough.
