Too Much

There is a sky inside you
And it is made of flames
And it is made of rain.
But you refuse to release it
Because someone you loved
Once told you that you are too much
To handle when you unleash
All of your beauty,
Your passion,
Your vulnerability.
You are too much
When you are raw.

So instead, you hide it.
You hold in the storms
You slowly let the fire die.
All because you think
How no one can handle
Your truth, your courage,
Your pain.
