CENSORED SELF

I hide from myself.
Hiding my tears from the pain.
Hiding the laughter to steal the joy.
I hide from myself.

Taking the words that flow from my lips.
Tossing them aside into the gray sky.
Taking the wisdom that immerses my brain.
Forsaking it for the freedom to be insane.

I hide from myself.
From my freedom.
From my laughter.
From my tears.

I have censored myself
Through out the years.
Who am I?
Who is the woman inside of me?

I hid from myself.
To become what you wanted.
To become someone else
I have censored myself.
