For the People I've Never Met

This is for the people I never met
The things I never did
And the words I never said

Part of me...
Wants to reach out and grasp everything I want to accomplish in life
Part of me wants to explore and learn and wander
Part of me wants to speak up and just talk

But another part of me wants to retreat into its hole and never come out
Wants to stay hidden from the light and drag everything down with it
Wants to shut my mouth and avoid everyone and everything
It wants to keep me from doing the things I want to do
Restricts me from speaking and living

There are things I want to do words I want to say and places I want to see
But this part of me is the larger part

It'll keep me from living until I find a way to break through
Until then I will remain in the darkness of this hole and be silent
