I know I said I was going to take a break from posting but not writing and not posting right away doesn’t feel right. I feel like I can’t just let my poems sit there. I feel like I NEED to share them with you.

I also realized I’m not good at sitting with my emotions. I’m definitely trying but then I grab my phone, open my notes app, and start writing.

Sure, it’s a way to let things out but one poem only addresses one topic. What happens to the other emotions I don’t write about? They stay in my body while my mind stays floating and while my fingers rush to write anything down.

Anything is not everything and it’s also not enough.
