I was never taught how to manage my sadness, so I run from her nowadays.

She shallows my breath, clouds my mind and slowly changes who stands before you.

See,I was never taught how to manage my sadness.

So when she rears her head demanding to be herd, felt, dealt with... I drink, smoke, take rails or have ***... see, she feels less restrictive when I indulge.

See, I was never taught how To handle my sadness

So now she terrifies me. I was never taught that her waves couldn’t drown me. Suffocate me, pull me under her knees, Her waves, they reach the high heavens.. so typically she terrifies me nowadays.

See I was never taught how to handle my sadness, so I run from her,

Nowadays.
