There's No Shame

Fear
hiding
oh the shame
emotions weep
from places unknown
senseless inward torture
deep within is screaming out
others must never see this pain
shying away from horrible truths
a darkening cloud masks love that surrounds
what if the lies were unnecessary?
unwanted torment secret no more
problems shared for others to aid
a head held high admitting
embrace comfort offered
first word hard to come
let your soul pour
there's no shame
speaking
Fear
