A Confession

Tales of a lifetime,
Close to my heart I hold dear
These secrets you may never know.
Alone I think of the future, the present, the past.
People approach, and still these feelings I have,
I keep them to myself.

Days filled with happiness
Bring delight, and a calm solemnity.
Sadness though, with or without tears,
Rain on the skies and enshroud them in gloom.
Sorrows, joys, triumphs, failures:
They come one after another.
Which path am I to choose?
It is but predestined fate that
These approach in time.

Anger? Jealousy? Grief?
No, there is nothing I want more than
To think out these troubles,
For they will soon cease to be,
And I do want to tell you.
Let the minds intertwine:
Concerns with relief; problems with solutions.
If you only knew the truth…

Sometimes I hear you talk
And there you are close by.
Other times I see you, but in fact
You are far, far away.
I do not shy myself from you.
If you come to me I will speak,
Revealing my mind, my thoughts, my soul.

Silence and mystery, once known, are broken,
But I awaken in the midst of a forgotten puzzle.
Is it a virtue? Or a false destiny?
Let me a while and I shall
Put these pieces together,
Before they get lost in
An ever-expanding history.

One day the moment will come when
Dreams become reality and the stories be told.
Until then, let them be.
Everything takes in the a plot of an
Unfinished story, but I hope
It will never end, that it may go on and on
And we will hold on to our memories.
