Impending
this hot knife
that stabs me through
returns each day
to remind me it's true
it twists to increase
the pain i hide
a wave of panic strikes me...
because i lied
my stomach knots up
and my eyes again tear
the time has come
to face years of fear
it's because of my love
and the respect i feel
i can't bury this
or pretend it's not real
i'm scared and i'm shamed
of this person you don't know
but to reveal this truth
is the only way to grow.
my muscles are paralyzed
my heads all a mess
just, please, keep saying
i'm doing whats best
