You should publish your words they all say
But in fear I tucked them hid them away
Hoping that I might show them to the world one day
But for now my thoughts alone they shall stay

It's not that I don't have poems that are funny and cheerful
I fear when I write folks might think I gave them and earfull
Not scared of the comments or witty critiques
If you know who I am you'd know I'm used it because of my physique

I take my poems and hide them away
Praying that one day I'll allow the world to discover
There was poet hiding and she was no-one other than...

She should've published her words they say
She stayed hopeful and yet kept them locked away
Hoping to show them to the world one day
But now as part of the world she'll lay
