Bottled Up

Bottled it up,
Let it explode,
Let it explode,
To let go of the load,
Load got bigger,




Heavier,






More difficult,
Blowing up with emotion is not cool,
Not the right cure,



For healing the mood,







Collapsed and shuddered,





Wept and yelled,
Insults after insults,


Believing all ends well,






Jump up,







Brush it off,





But the agony’s still there,



Plopped under a tree,

Wanting to be alone somewhere,
Went over the steps again,

Thought it out and had it well repaired,

So I…
Bottled it up,
Let it explode,
Let it explode,
To let go of the load,
Load got bigger,




Heavier,





More difficult,
Blowing up with emotion is not cool,
Not the right cure,



For healing the mood…







But I just kept on loving him.

People explode all the time...I wrote this one day when I felt like I was about to explode.

Thank you for the comment. I really appreciate it. I usually don't let other people read my poetry but I'm sort of glad i did.
