Unfolded
All my life I tried
To keep others from knowing the truth
About how lost I was inside
Many were the times I considered suicide
But I didn't want my family to worry
My heart is unfolded before you
I begin to unfold my secrets one by one
This broken man who never thought he would find
The love I thought could never be mine
You've inspired me to become
My secrets are unfolded to you
I've never allowed anyone else
To know the truth inside of me
Others would zero in on my insecurity
Use my faults to get the best of me
You encourage me and give me power
I am unfolded before you
You are my light in the darkness
You are my strength when I feel weak
This is the love I thought I'd never find
I promise to return it to you in kind
Let us not fear to be who we are
Unfolded to each other

We love comments, with three caveats.
Be cool, Fool.
Don't be rude, Dude.
Don't be a prick, Slick.
That's all, Saul.
I try to get comments published as quickly as possible. I don't always reply to comments on my blog, but I do try to visit as many people as possible when I participate in blog hops and I share links where possible to Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and such so others can discover your work. I do read and appreciate your comments.
