We do not want to feel

Emotions can be difficult to bear
But maybe they bring something we should hear
A message or a wound we have ignored
Action’s needed or we are destroyed

Being happy always is unreal
Living in compartments now concealed
If you cannot bear your pain alone
Seek for conversations that will warm

Loving neighbours comes extremely hard
If from our own suffering we are barred
Imprisoned feelings make us tense as boards
Stiff like wooden puppets,s frozen hearts


As they say, the way out sends us through
The feelings that we did not know we knew
