Tired

Post by sonofthesun » March 27th, 2025, 1:03 am

I’m tired of being afraid
Of what may be thought
Construed, from a thing I post
Is it safe to share?
No.
If you wish to keep
Your internet friends
As Folks don’t like another’s truth
with their cat videos
There is no empty space

frightening times
who might might turn you in
somehow we have to keep
love alive
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

there are a few dark thoughts
i keep locked in a cage in my basement
not for fear of disapproval
from my internet acquaintances -
but of reprisal
from any lurkers with their ears pressed to the door

Knowing you are not wrong
Keeps the song
Sung loud
Worried of what may be
Is lessened by
The beauty of all that can be
Found
There is no empty space
