ashamed

Locked away in your soul are thoughts untold
Kept secret and hidden yet journeys unfold
Emotionless face but the mind is easily read
Lines of bitter writing litter the roads ahead
I pushed you away without even knowing
as foolish pride got in the way of showing
Ashamed of reality but it is true
I detest what I became in treatment of you
The past is behind us yet it doesn’t self erase
Take a step forward in attempts to be brave
These words are nothing but lines on a page
Like a raging fire, your heart is ablaze.
