Where Were You?

I am that still small voice,

Barely audible beneath the rushing waves that cloud your mind.

I am the desperate chameleon.

Constantly changing myself to adapt to my surroundings.

I am the wide eyed owl.

Seeing everything, and taking your secrets to the grave.

I am the girl in the back of the classroom.

To scared to raise my hand.

I am bleeding, ruby red water. The tub is filling;

overflowing, oozing with emotions, to painful to endure.

I was always there.

But where were you?
