Dawn & Dusk

I have only just realised
Have only begun to see
That no one sees the pain
That is buried within me

No one can grasp
How deeply it pierces
Or begin to comprehend
How it rips me to pieces

My subjective experience
Is locked up inside me
All of this time I had thought
That everyone else could see

Only this page
Can offer a brief window
Let the darkness in my heart
Have somewhere to flow

And so, I open up
And bleed onto this paper
Using this gift I received
From my gracious Maker
