Safe

Deep inside my breath

I save all my emotions

Keeping them all the day

There is no other course

Completely done seeking

Raking everything away

Soft is the earth

Like a banishment

All safe now, where I lay

If you swallow all your feelings
They'll surely make you sick
A case of indigestion
For which there's no quick fix

Emotional constipation
Is not a laughing matter
I can tell you my experience
Of resultant verbal splatter

When my lovely served me hurt
I didn't fuss or make a face
I swallowed all my fear and doubt
And said retroactive grace

Later, my sweet innocently grumbled
Angrily, my stomach rumbled, and out the word vomit tumbled!
It got all over him and me,
Covering our situation stickily
And I got tearful with despair

Lovely is patient and lovely is kind
He helped clean up the mess from my mind
Hopefully I won't swallow bitter feelings in silence
To later erupt in such verbal violence.

Great poem, Eddieee.
I have a tendency to bury my emotions and Iโ€™ve noticed that I seem to block out many traumatic or even unpleasant events.

So, what next? Do the skeletons stay buried or come back to haunt you later?

Well said! There should be more consequence for serving hurt, but in the end, it is how we react that matters.

We all have skeletons. What you do with yours, and if you let them haunt you, is up to you.
