SH !!! Someone's listening, they'll hear every word.
I sense them ever closer, flying past like a bird.

Maybe we shouldn't say that, for they might even hear
The whispers of our hearts and thoughts might be too clear.

SH !!! Someone's watching, I fear that they will see
I feel them ever closer, darting like a bumble bee.

Maybe we shouldn't do this and maybe we should beware,
For I know that they are watching, I know that they are there.

You ask who I fear, that I should take such pause?
For everything I do, I simply say "Because,"
"Someone's always watching and listening, you see.
It's not someone I can name, it IS my inner ME.

I also have an 'inner me' that scolds me quite often and is always watching. Wonderful job!!
