I am openly reserved
I wonder what you think of me
I hear the voices, taunting
I see the angels crying
I want to break free
I am openly reserved

I pretend that nothing really matters
I feel afflicted with guilt
I touch with ignominy
I worry you'll know
I cry without feeling
I am openly reserved

I understand life is unjust
I say the world will go on
I dream about the end of this travesty
I try to be free
I hope you understand
I am reserved - openly.

(I AM repost challenge)

well done ma'am...
  nothing wrong with being reserved, openly
you really paint a nice portrait of who you see yourself as.

Yuka, Cpat, EBM - Thanx, I appreciate your comments. I found this to be a bit difficult, because of all the "I", but I'm satisfied with the result.   Thanx for looking in.

THIS touched me very much. You covered much of the inner you and the outward world and not everything needed answers, you seem to know the answers and that, then is the problem. Sometimes we are better off not knowing.
