Stuffed Emotions

Boil n burst
Potential 
Smothered
By fear, rules
N judgments
Stabbing my tears
Angry
Unaware
Of the locked
In pain

Sadness
Weeps out
From the well
That's been building
In the darkness
The memories
Stuffed deep down
And why?
Because
I don't want 
to feel

How can I express
What I hate 

And why would 
I show you
All of the shit?

So you can judge
And push me away
Further

From myself I have come
Because if I feel
All that I haven't
What will happen
Who will I be?

But a small
And smothered
Picture of propriety

Too long...

In your arms
My own
The lid pops

With it my fears
Dissolve 
Diving into my darkness
I feel all that 
I once felt
A hall of memories

I surrender and allow
The loss to let go
In it's heavy load
I am lightened....

We are that toroidal flow
We are not meant to hang on
Or control
Or repress 
anything

We are here as nature does
To be 
to express
To create and constantly flow
Eeeee.....Motion
Energy moving 
is what I am 
we are!

Let's dance in our humanness 
and realize our emotions are just that.

And not attach our selves to them!

We are that which they flow through and that which created the structure to experience it all and to know!
