Need to meditate
putting it off because I’m afraid
of what I’ll unearth.
All the shadows and hidden emotions
I’ve locked away from myself
to keep functioning,
to cope.
But coping is no way of life
and I need to face myself
and my fears;
take accountability for my life.
But isn’t it easier
to pretend nothing’s wrong
than it is to
acknowledge that
everything’s wrong?
I’ve gotta stop getting so good at
taking the easy way out.
