Insecurities

Hidden secrets,
Buried deep.
Built of regrets,
A cliff that's steep.

Lying in wait,
Striking when you're alone.
A terrible fate,
To the world, unknown.

Fears and worries,
All combined.
Imagined furries,
Of people within your mind.

Sinister and dark,
They tear you apart.
The future seems stark,
To your battered heart.

Friends try to guide you,
Thinking they know best.
If only they knew,
That which you can't get off your chest.
