Come Out

Maybe it's better that I hide
because with everything I feel inside
the only way to keep it inside
is if I stay inside for safe keeping
but can you tell I've been weeping
I'm not happy here
and it's because of my fear
it's clear that what's killing me
not the darkness
but it's so inviting
so enticing
and then there's the light
so bright
both are so protective
at least from my perspective
could they be what's healing me
I must embrace them
because if I refuse to face them
I will remain hidden
believing having courage is forbidden
I guess I shouldn't hide
from what I feel inside
because I will never get out
if I keep letting in doubt
