Sometimes it feels like I could cry myself to sleep
Other times it feels like I could try to hide my emotions and lay completely still
There have been times when I didn’t know how to feel or the reason why
Have you ever been so scared because you didn’t know what you were supposed to feel
A flood of emotions coming from my heart
A flood of feelings that I had thought I had gotten rid of
A flood of trying so hard but never measure up to my expectations
A flood of mixed interpretations when my heart doesn’t know what it wants just yet
Sometimes I want others to check on me
Other times I feel I am better off alone
Sometimes I will let you in on what’s got me down
Sometimes you will need to dig deeper, but I may get more upset
Sometimes I am the flooder, sharing with people more than they can deal with
Sometimes I am on the receiving end, of what feels like a bullet
There are opportunities to listen, every single day but do I have the time
There are experiences that I can relate with, and some I try to bury deep inside
