Why do we have to hide our emotions?
Why do bottle them up?
When hiding your emotions is like hiding a gushing wound,
When the hole won't close
The blood won’t clot.
Its because everyone else
Who can’t feel your genuine pain would prefer to
Not see the gore
Or clean up the mess.
So you're stuck with a painful wound
Without a bandaid or proper care
Your just stuck holding the wound closed
But you can only hold it for so long
And once you let go
You can’t stop the bleeding
So you bleed it all out
Til there's nothing left.
And your left with an empty body.
