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.
