SECRETS OUT BY FIONA CUMMINGS

Secrets out

By Fiona Cummings

No need to be afraid anymore

No one can come through the door

People can stand in your way

Keep walking around them

Watch them go away

The bullies will get bored

Happiness they cannot afford

So they try to greed from others

Hurting you is to them a sport

They are not your friends, parents, sisters or brothers

Be a judge in your own court

Step back for a while

Watch your frown turn to a smile

 What once hurt you you learn how to disregard

Life can be like death

So painful and hard

But only if you allow that

Don’t be walked on like a door mat

Do what ever you can

You have as much right to walk this land

If you don’t have anyone to hold your hand

Then make yourself stronger

You will live longer

Or just queue to die

Spend every day waiting to cry

Or, spread your wings and fly

Look at your life

Full of pain

Go to sleep tonight

Wake up again

Same old life

Same ways

Your long nights chasing days

Daytime turning into dusk

Hiding behind a mask

Life should not be about a task

You should delight in your days

Love your own ways

 Enjoy the skin you were born in

Throw all your rubbish in the bin

As living your life now is a no win

A situation of constant regrets

A growing cancer from imaginary cigarettes

You have tri                        ed dying

So now time for a change

Start trying

Open your range

Look at what is around you

A new view

Say yes to happiness

Goodbye to madness

Those who hurt you

Tell them goodbye

If they cared for you

They wouldn’t make you cry

OK, so you will be alone for a while

But your own company is better than theirs

You can’t beat yourself

Left on that crumbling shelf

Felt like you are being laughed at

Pointed out

Your whispers can turn to a shout

Pour your troubles through that teapot spout

Watch it drain away

Never to come back even on that rainy day

When it’s all gone

Put in the plug

Give yourself a needed hug

You are better than them

Kinder

Stronger

More loving

Giving

You are you

No need to whisper

Or close your words in a drawer

Pick yourself up off the floor

Only let in the good

Through your very own door

If they don’t make you feel good

Then chop them up like a rotten piece of wood

Burn the pain

Time to live again

Don’t ask how

Or even when

Start now

Don’t hide anymore

Tell who you want your story

It’s your glory

No more hushed words

You if you want can shout

Don’t let anyone tell you what to do

As now your secrets  out
