Our Suppressed Society

Somehow, down through the centuries,

Man discerned it was best to hide.

Conceal their grief and likewise love,

And hoard it all inside.

 

Emotions we should so easily share,

We choose to temper instead.

And so many things that we want to say,

We just let go...unsaid.
