she barricaded her emotions within

she wanted to let herself feel the volume of sadness, of anger, of worthlessness

she barricaded her emotions within

she tried to make herself cry, but over what?

she barricaded her emotions within

she saw everyone else melting into their emotions about the smallest thing

she barricaded her emotions within

months passed by, october leaves were falling

she barricaded her emotions within

cold december walks and a tear dropped

are my emotions barricaded within?

it’s February and i can’t take it anymore

are my emotions barricaded within?

march and i had a good cry

my emotions aren’t barricaded within

i’m so tired
