Spill forth
never mind the carpet
never mind your clothes
spill forth
let it out
never mind pretense
never mind offenses
let it all come out
you’re doing damage
to your brain
your head
is getting soft
you’re doing damage
to your heart
holding
it all inside
you are a stifled geyser
ready to blow
you could be a beautiful star
instead you implode
you feel the pain
deep in your gut
but
you never trust it
you feel the knife
rusting in between
your ribs
and you focus on it
you forget that
you are a mountain
that you can move
things with your mind
you ignore that
you are important
from matter you came
and you will return
yet you matter
in multiverses
you are a stone
that cannot be displaced
you could be a beautiful star
yet you choose to implode

I shared it on my Twitter. Great poem. I like the self reflection and the inner turmoil. You capture well with the use of a star and implosion; this makes me think of a super nova, when a star comes back on itself and becomes even denser and hotter to the point where it explodes back out. Well done. Thank you for sharing.
I can relate to this in many ways right now but thanks it’s inspired me a lot! 😀
