When I write I wonder who's reading?
I secretly hope it's you
I don't want to tell you directly how I feel

I was observing how I was feeling
So you didn't have to witness it
Chances are you will never find this
That's okay
I don't expect you to dig that deep
That's why I find comfort with my favorite pen
I cleanse my mind
Cursing at the cursive I create
Outside of these pages I try to be the person you need me to be
In here I'm everything I'm afraid you see instead
