Feel your Feelings
Allow yourself to go
beyond numbing disappointment
and put words to how you feel
Stop brushing everything aside like nothing matters
Bring your emotions out in daylight
Don’t hide and gloss them over ~ analyze them
Do away with self censorship
Dig deeper ~ know you’re entitled
to feelings and to express them
No longer silence the inner child
who gets offended and wants to cry
Be its champion ~ let it speak up and be heard
Feelings are what allows you to
explore the why of who you are
Expressing feelings is what helps
connect with others through understanding
