"Secret Space"

All I have is what I feel
Inside my heart , I know
Just what it is that I need
To help my self to grow  

Let me be and see the way
My life it needs to go
Underneath inside I hide
from the secrects no one knows

I get scared and feel alone
Inside my soul is crying
Nothing inside me to share
My fear is slowly dying

No help I need from my self
All my pain is my own
Along the way to a better me
to find my inner home

ok some good things and some bad here.  good things - it is a nice poem, flows well, good rhyme scheme.  bad things - lacks origionality, gives you an almost hallmark kinda feel (candy-coated, so sweet and kind it makes you ill).  other than that it was actually decent.  you seemed on the tip a few times of being unique, yet you failed to find that phrase that makes you unique.  it takes time to develope.  relax.  don't freak out.  just think about something else and post a new poem.  

 shine a light so bright that all can see
and you will find the joys that echo within me
