Opening Up

I thought you might
Not quite understand
Where I've come from
Or who I am
My deep insecurities
And open wounds
That seem to heal slowly
As they hurt a great deal
I'm absent in a way
Similar an empty ocean
What was once alive
Is now limp and barren
What has happened
So traumatic to kill me
How did I let this happen
Why am I this way
I figured I'd leave you
Without words to reciprocate
You might even shrug it off
And act as if I never said a thing
I hope this to not be the case
As I've entrusted you with secrecies
That I myself never proclaim
For fear of being weak
It took a lot
For me to open up to you
Please don't discard me
Or my feelings
