Busyness is my tourniquet,
keeping feelings at bay,
working hard to stop the flow of
Loneliness
           Despair
                     Anxiety
                               Depression
                                         Heartache
                               Anger
                     Jealousy
          Agony
Resentment
Trying to manage the pain
so all I can possibly feel is
happiness.
