WALKWITHLUNE

I got told that my emotions are so heavy.
And I was taken aback
because if they were so heavy from just what
I was projecting –
Imagine how heavy it feels inside of my mind.
And yet hearing this
was almost like a fear
that came true.
Because I never wanted
to be too much for someone.
And this is the reason why
I find it so hard to open up
about what goes on in my mind
or the things I feel.
So that moment has been playing in my head
like it’s on a loop.
And I keep wanting to go back
to hide within myself –
then, and now.

Because I don’t want to feel like a burden.
Or show people just how crazy I can be.
And lately that’s just how I’ve felt.
