Leave the House Behind You

I know its another day
another opportunity
to feel my heart break
or to feel myself unburdened.

I have only to open my mouth
and to walk out my door
but something holds me back
horrible
    self-
        doubt.

And I can't imagine
what he'll say.

And I can't imagine
yes
  or
      no;

acceptance
  or
rejection

I feel like a child
cooped up in my house
of feelings.
They tell me it rains
because I am sad.
I am sad
because I am locked
in this house
of whispering fears.

I look out the window.
Fog whisps on the clean surface
from my unspoken words.
I'm surprised I'm still breathing.
I am suffocating
inside my own jail,
my self-doubting body.

Author notes

this is where I got my inspiration.
