What Then?
What do you do
When you get this feeling inside
That tells you to do something
But you don't know why?
What then?
Do you listen to it?
Do you do what it says?
Do you believe it?
Or do you ignore it?
Shove it back down
So far down that you never hear it again?
What do you do
When you do get that feeling?
What then?
Do you tell someone else?
Ask them for help?
For advice?
Or do you bottle it up?
Tell nobody and try to deal with it yourself?
Try to contain this feeling?
Conceal it?
What if you get that feeling
And you try all of the above?
Do any of them work?
Do they solve the problem?
What then?
But what if you get that feeling
And you try all of the above
But instead of solving the problem,
Nothing works?
What then?
