Hide Away
by Tiffany Forster (Age: 21)
copyright 01-26-2006


Age Rating: 13 to 127

 
Why do we keep our secrets?
Why do we hide ourselves away?
Living in this half-life
Wandering, half awake, in sleep
Wondering if we can take it
Or if our thoughts will just decay
Something doesn't feel right
Something here is off
Why am I keeping this secret
Why can't I just run away?
Thinking of this half-life
Where we're not complete or true
Knowing that we won't make it
Unless our fate will sway
Nothing here feels right
I'm aware that this is wrong
Why do we have these secrets?
Why don't we live for the day?
Half awake in this dream
Where nothing seems to be true
Wondering why I can't say it
Why can't we just run away?
When will this feel right?
When will we be free?
I guess I have to keep secrets
Lest I let myself decay
This half-life is the real thing
This is what is real
I'm awake in this reality
It's no longer slipping away
Everything now feels right
Everything is now okay
Guess I don't have to hide away.

You keep my interested the whole time. I like that. I also liked your points in this one. I felt like I was the one talking to myself, It was weird.Since you were able to do that here I think you are awesome! Keep up the good writing Tiffany

As poets we often leave room for discovery and I feel there's the obvious to be found here; all one has to do is look at self. Then again we also
leave to the imagination, the wonder of 'Whats this mean'. You've done a FINE job at both. Not only are you drudging up in the readers Psyche their own secrets, your doing it by using you own, yet your not divulging any of them either. brilliant work!

You keep making your self appear and disappear. your poem doesn't even give me a hint of what the secrets are and what your half-life is. I think you poet's voice should be more definite on who you are' Have more courage and confidence in the real you. If I am off base here, just ignore it.

I agree with most comments. The need to keep a secret-- to even see something as a deep dark secret-- is just a fear-based ego talking. No one really should feel anything's to hide.

I am not one for secrets, I believe the truth should be told no matter how harsh it may be. But then agian that train of thought gets me in trouble way to often. Good write.

This seems to send me the message that keeping secrets can be debilitating (half-life). When we talk to someone and totally open up, it is a freeing experience.
