Words
What are words
They are a way to tell the world what your thinking
But only if you say what your soul is really thinking
Too often we don't say
We don't tell the world
We don't even tell those that love us
Why
Why don't we say
Maybe we don't want to admit it to ourselves
Maybe we are ashamed
Mad that these thoughts hang over us
Damp
Dark
Dangerous
Worried that if we name them they will
claim us
Mark us
Use us
Trap us
And as much as we don't want to banish these thoughts and fight them off
We are more afraid of being trapped
So
We ignore them
Block them out
Refuse help
Because
Although we dislike our problem
It has latched its claws into us and won't
EVER
LET
GO

or
So we think
