Inside You

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Eventhough
I haven't a clue who you are
I know you
I understand you.

I know not your name
Or even of you
But I know you are reading this poem
And I know who you might be
And what's inside of you.

Mad at the world or do you have a plastic smile
You're scared, either way.
You cover it
One way or another
Don't be weak
You repeat.

You're never mad
And you've never smiled
You'd hate to be human
and you're still just a child.

And you
You're completely normal
Nothing out of the ordinary
You cry, laugh, and get upset
At the appropriate time
Everything is 50/50
Just like it should be
Except...
You hate that word
The one part of your life
Where neurosis sets in.

You're trying so hard
Just roll your eyes
Start using your guards
But it's too late
I already found it
your Achillies tendon

No pain
I promise
Relief and security
That's what will come of it
I promise
I know.
You secret is safe with me.
