My secret

a potato

Standing drowning dying

at the same time

im hurt wanting forgiveness

and sympathy all the time

im crying im staggering

im failing in life

Im trembling im hurting

lonliness and dread

and im also smiling and laughing

covering it all

a secret

my secret

from the world and them all
