I fear my emotions
Expressing them I mean
I’m afraid to laugh too much
To cry
To feel anxiety
To feel sad
To feel stressed
I’m afraid to feel too much
For I’m known to lean in to such
Half hearted? Oh no
I always lean in for more.
What if I can’t stop laughing?
Or I can’t stop crying?
What if anxiety and sadness overcome me once again
Would this really be my happy time then?
So no, like Kanye’s smile
I let it rip
But I always catch myself from a potential slip.
