Sparks in the Dark

Needs

I'm so tired of the locked words in my throat.
Never speaking up for myself, never letting others know what I need or want, never letting my thoughts and feelings out. Never letting my needs be met.
Its not like I'm intentionally trying to be self destructive, or hurt myself.. I just feel like a bother, or a burden, like I'm inconveniencing someone just for voicing my pain or needs.
I wish I could tell others when I need things.
