These Bottled Up Emotions
Reach A High Velocity
Emotions Swirl Around
Denial is Everything
Anger Is Your Comfort
Sadness Is Your Enemy
Letting Go Is Hard
But Holding On Is Harder
Falling Is Inevitable
You Crash Into The Guilt
You’re Surrounded By The Pain
You Fight Against Acceptance
But Then You Accept
Put Your Head Up High
And Decide To Move Forward
