My Poison

I’m bored and I’m tired and I’ve had an emotionally draining day, so I decided to just share an old poem and the drawing I made a few years ago to go with it.

Afraid to act, ashamed to share
The Weakness inside,
I bury it under my Pride,
Under my Poison.
I stay in the Shadows,
Afraid of the Light that will reveal
My Truth.
They swallow me, fading my Existence,
Until there is nothing left
But my Pride,
But my Poison.
