She's in There Somewhere
swirling thoughts in my mind
a dangerous whirlpool
a laughing carousel
usually the first
memories are hidden dangers
masked by imagination
hidden to keep me from harm
what is the harm?
I know somewhere within me
there is a person
but I'm trying to protect her
keep her safe
If she finds those hidden memories
dangerous, killing secrets
she will surely break
so very fragile
Three layers I am made of
the first is the only visisble
meek and friendly
untruthful mask
the second is the harshest
steel walls and poisonous thorns
keeping out the pain
destructive thoughts
I know least about the third
she's almost perfect, almost
the one I want to be
I only wish she were strong enough to bear the pain
