Keep It To Yourself

There are a handful of people that I trust,

and even then I don't tell them everything.

I've always thought that keeping everything in,

all bottled up, was the best solution.

Now I see that it's not what I should do,

but I don't know what to do about it.

I can't seek help because I'd be an inconvenience.

Being shot down the few times I reached out

made me scared of talking about my feelings.

I feel like an idiot when I pour everything out

just for someone to read it and not care.

So now I'm trying to cope on my own,

and it's not going very well.
