I am the alternate you

I am the tears you never cried
the words you never used to lie
the words of truth you never told
because you weren’t that bold.

I am the dreams you never found
I am the sound of silence of words never said
I am the truth that never entered your heart.
I am reality
I am fiction
I am all
I am nothing
I am the version of you never expressed
The alternate self you repressed,
so much more could you be,
but still you wonโ€™t ever see me!
