You know my secrets, my fears,
You know me better than I do!
My secret yearnings,
Dreams and goals,
You hear me scream when others don’t,
They watch the painted on smile.

You hold my hand and release my fears,
You brush your lips o’er mine,
Closing my eyes, my demons are released,
At last, safe in your arms.

Back to reality I spin,
With a mind blowing thud,
Living my life of lies,
The churning of disbeliefs deep in my heart,
Where did I go wrong?
Is it wrong to be needed?
To be validated?
I guess so!

Good questions here but drop that last line. Don't give away the answer, let the reader provide his own. Without that last line, it leaves the poem open-ended and gets your reader much more involved in your writing.
