I Don'T Want To Talk About It

I don't have the strength right now I need to focus on other things I'll find the best way to talk about my suffering Tomorrow I'll go down that path, but right now I'll walk around it Right now I don't want to talk about it I'm sorry but I'm not ready to talk I'm just trying to relax and avoid my heaviest thoughts tomorrow we can speak about it, but right now you don't need to know I just want to sit down, order takeaway and watch a few episodes of my favourite show Maybe joke and laugh about this and that Send me a few funny texts and I'll hit you back Just don't send me anything serious tonight Sometimes we just need to take a day off from real life I don't want to hear any bad news Tonight I want to laugh until my ribs hurt and take a night off from being the sad dude Let's talk about our dream girls and if we regret any of our tattoos Swap phones and go through each others to see who's the first to get embarrassed about what we last viewed I just want to have fun tonight and forget about any worries Tonight everything will be beautiful and nothing will be scary I'm just taking a rest, I'm not trying to walk around it But tonight I just don't want to talk about it

Alex, we have all felt this way - sometimes exactly this way, and it is marvelous that you have captured this un-named feeling into a poem. Wonderful!
