Why are people so afraid to feel?
Is it so intimidating to express something real?
Emotions that aren't artificial?

Every day I see people hide
From their true feelings inside
They wear a mask and do not handle repressed emotions from the past

Instead they take it out on the people of the present
We treat each other like peasants
Like no one will ever be good enough to break down our walls
Even though we all have flaws

We must except the past for what it is
Learn from it
Do not be consumed by it
Strength follows with every stab to the heart that wasn't fatal
Every rock that we hit when we were at the bottom
Grieving is nessitsary
But it should only be temporary

Feeling is such a beautiful thing.
It lets us know that we are alive
Why do so many people enjoy being dead on the inside?

Shutting out emotions will stunt your personal growth
To not feel,
Then you must not be real.
