I Forgot

i forgot how to cry
to protect myself
from showing any pain
everything soon became personal
i forgot how to talk about myself
i cant look you in the eye
for shame you will find out to much about me
i wont let you touch me
afraid you will find out
something you dont understand
hidden chains that you will never see
hold me in place so i cant escape
nailed down and locked away
is what will if i ever get to close to you
dont ask questions
that cant be answered
dont jump to conclusions
on what you feel to be true
