the release
unhappiness
the struggle to go about your daily life
without experiencing desire for
the end
not a mindset--a plague
and then, a means of escape
one small way to express it
without self-destruction
and it's not so dangerous anymore
feelings and heartbreak and solitude and apathy
different emotions just the same as you've felt them
but now they're on paper
now it's in words
and it's not so numb anymore
a way to vent without disturbing
and it's not so unhappy anymore
