They wonder why I'm quiet...

They wonder why I don't show my feelings...

They wonder why I listen to everyone's problems...

They don't see the scars that I hide and hurt that I have felt...

Being a poet 

I think to be a poet means

To be one to bleed out 

On lined paper 

And express the hurt 

you must feel.

i have always journaled,

ever since i was 6.

sure back then my entries were just doodles of my day,

but it still helped me convey my emotions.

i was at the shop with my mom,
