Description: n/a
I don’t want to feel this
I wish I could give it away
It would be better than being crushed
By the pity in your eyes
It would be so easy
But I’m strangled by
The possibility of missed opportunity
So despite
Shrinking in your presence
And gagging on my worry
I must swallow my pride
I have to try
Or I’ll implode from these thoughts
Building up inside

This is beautiful! I loved these expressions a lot: ‘It would be better than being crushed
By the pity in your eyes,’ ‘Shrinking in your presence,’ ‘implode from these thoughts
Building up inside.’ Thank you!
