Emotions Overflow

A storm brews, 

dark, 

a whirlwind...

...in the back of my mind.

It eats at my soul,

until its inevitable release

of scary, loud words...

...that spill with instant guilt.

Why can't I contain the storm inside me?

 

It's weeks on weeks, 

of holding in

the impatience,

the frustration,

the depression...

but release often leaves others confused,

concerned,

so I keep my feelings,

like secrets,

hidden within me.
