You write to get feelings off your chest

To get a point across

To bring something to light to an issue

That’s what it’s meant for

A tool

To help you get through all the shit we have to go through

But my problem right now

Is that something terrible happened

And i’m struggling to cope

But i can’t seem to get the words out

I can’t decide what to feel, or what point I want to share, and it feels too dark to bring any light

I try to push the words through my mouth

Express the anger and fear and shock i’m feeling.

But my lips are sealed shut

Lock them and throw away the key

I don’t know what to do
