I think I finally get it, the reason I've woken up gasping for air. The reason I've grabbed at my veins when they itch. The reason I've found myself sick and timid. There is always something I have had to say and one million reasons I've found not to say it. I write everyday but have kept it all a secret. I've worn my thoughts like chains around my neck. I don't know if I can walk under the weight any longer. So now, I will swallow the taste of fear like bitter medication on a spoon. From here on I will open the wound and release the words that infect me; release the words that make me itch, release the words that inspire me, release the words that might hurt you, release the words that might make you think twice about me - about yourself, release the words I have a million reasons to share. I hope I can inspire you to be honest; to share your pain, your joy, your truth.
