during the calm of the storm

during the lull

my thoughts pore out

as I bare my soul

*****

I am open to you

and later I may regret

letting you know me

and my fantasys and secrets

*****

I don't really know you

I havn't bothered to ask

whats in your mind

whats behind your mask

*****

I could make many mistakes

openning my soul

to love and freindships

and emotional pulls

*****

my esteem and ego are low

so choose your words so delicately

don't laugh at what I say

treat me carefully......
