This Secret ... It's Hard to Shake
I don't know how long I can keep this inside me (us). It's becoming harder and more difficult. It's causing me to lose focus. To lose hope - just a little - but yes, hope. This thing, I want it to go away. Why can't I shake it? This thing continues to sneak into my dreams. Almost everywhere I go, there is some little reminder. Will it ever go away?
It's not bad, necessarily, maybe I'd miss it when it's (perhaps) one day gone? I doubt it will ever go away though, it's engrained into my head - heart - but it's making me wither a bit.
My (our) secret, I don't know how long I can bear this. I keep finding myself slipping and just so desperately wanting to talk to someone about this thing. I need a stranger to tell - someone who won't ask questions, give hassle or be judging. Someone who won't tell me to just relax and not worry/think about this thing. This thing that is haunting me. I've been here many times before and the worst thing is, I know it will be back, wrapping me up in it's ways, giving me these illusions.
This wee little secret, please let me one day share you. Until then, I just need to remember that I - we - will keep breathing and the most important person in my life is here for me.
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade. Fuel - Shimmer.
