doors: a poem about emotions.

some days

my emotions open their doors

to my mind

and i start to realize

the depth of their chambers

deep

deep

deep

.

my emotions open their doors

to my mind

and i start to resist

the fear of falling

deep

deep

deep

.

my emotions open their doors

to my mind

and i get rough against

the sensitivity of my heart

i learn to be

gentle

gentle

gentle

the doors are sometimes slow to open

don’t let them close

remember,

gentle

gentle

gentle

to those emotions when they

open their doors to my

mind

and show me

their depth

deep

deep

deep

.

i wrote this poem in a season of a lot of emotion & sadness--where it was so hard to be accepting of feeling so low and deep so often. this is real guys! i hope this poem helps you allow for more gentleness in your heart. emotions are hard and powerful but at the end of the day, we just need to accept and love them and thank them for blessing us. your body & your heart know how to feel stuff, so don't fight them <3. this is something i've become so passionate about & will definitely write a whole post or two about soon.

love you all. see you next week! let me know if you resonated with this & if you want more poems:)
