Secrets

Words unspoken
Struggles constantly fought
On the battlefield of my mind
Unspeakable tragedies
Laced throughout my soul
A flaw so pronounced with in me
I can not open my mouth
And simply ask for help
For a shoulder to cry upon
That rejection is to much
I will take it when offered
Only if it is done through love
Then there is no judgement
Only arms around me
When I shiver in the cold
You question my solemn mask
But how can I turn to you?
I fear your criticism and abandonment
Through tears and rejection
I have not left your side
Though you have run from mine
It is hard to be my friend
To stand strong when I need it
Even if you feel a little shaky
To put your arms around me
Without a word spoken
Only seeing the desperation in my eyes
I never know when you will leave again
Consider me to much or not need me anymore
Every minute spent with you is treasured
For there is nothing more precious to me
Then the friendship we have made
From this roller coaster affair
But realize that you can not give me love
Even as a friend
So there will always be secrets
