CANNOT

I cannot write what I am thinking.
I cannot even say it aloud.
I will not allow myself to complete the thought.
Yet, I know it to be true,
And yet I deny it to myself.
I would deny it to anyone who asked
or took notice of the fact.
Recognizing it would change everything.
I cannot bear more change, not yet.
