This poem captivates with its opening line, creating anticipation and a sense of vulnerability. The contrast between "I gave away my secrets, and died" suggests the sacrifices we make for growth. It's a powerful metaphor that invites reflection on personal transformation. Overall, it's brief but deeply impactful, leaving you pondering the costs of revealing yourself.

A unique and intriguing thought for the contest here... I would suggest, however, using a different formatting as your offering appears simply as a sentence rather than as a 20-syllable poem. In these short formats, punctuation is unnecessary as it is superseded by format of author choice... one such suggestion is given below... Thanx so much for sharing and best of luck in the contest! ;)
