Trapped Emotions

"Old Emotions" Written by Michelle L. LeBlanc Copyright: April 14, 2022 Old emotions trapped deep inside Don't always surface Until one spits in my eyes Deep rooted pain throughout my past Began as a little girl Hoping rejection wouldn't last Growing up, as years went by It didn't get much easier So often I dried my eyes Even with all the talents I had My insecurities sang stronger Longing for friends & love of a dad Now I choose to look deep inside Shining some light Finding strength when I cry Much I really don't understand The depths of the pain and hurt Still buried in the sand Where did it come from, and why As early as I can remember Something was always hurting inside But from it all, I now can see That each of my stumbling blocks Gives me steps to be free I will learn and I will grow Finding strength within Facing insecurities toe to toe!
