Bleeding Emotion

When I give myself up to
the darkness inside, the happy

facade that I've perfected
shatters. Suddenly I am vulnerable

to the world I've worked so hard
to protect myself from. And i tried

to pick up the shards and pieces
but they cut me. My wounds are

bleeding not blood but instead
emotion. And those emotions

shot up around me and painted
a mosaic in the sky. All reds and

yellows, blues and pinks until
I made the decision to look up

And above me I saw that they
left me a fiery picture of dawn.
