Feelings soar, only to spiral back down.
Scars heel, and memories fade.
We contemplate the words we should say,
the thoughts we should ponder,
and the emotions we desperately want to show.
Waiting, only fuels the fear that keeps us from expression.
Expression can bring us to our highest ecstasy in life,
but it is expression, that can also bring us to our knees.
Life's biggest quandary, to express our desires or to flee.
A choice we must all make, and regardless of the fear of rejection.
Never knowing, always guessing, leads to our demise.

Feelings soar, only to spiral back down.
Scars heel, and memories fade.
We contemplate the words we should say,
the thoughts we should ponder,
and the emotions we desperately want to show.
Waiting, only fuels the fear that keeps us from expression.
Expression can bring us to our highest ecstasy in life,
but it is expression, that can also bring us to our knees.
Life's biggest quandary, to express our desires or to flee.
A choice we must all make, and regardless of the fear of rejection.
Never knowing, always guessing, leads to our demise.
