I wrote this poem because I realized that I have so many secrets I would like to tell people, but I am completely terrified to do so. I have horrible, terrifying secrets that I am not sure people would take very well and I don't want to be a burden. I wanted to express what I felt like not being able to tell them and say that it felt like I was drowning from them because they never let me go. I hope that people like this poem because I take my poetry very seriously and I want people to relate to it, so maybe they can feel a little better about themselves.
