The Crumbling Dam

 Water is pushing against the dam.

A dam that I built to protect myself.

However, it is now starting to crack.

I want to patch up the dam.

Make it like it was.

But the water composed of my emotions is relentless.

It is slowly undermining the dam.

Once it breaks, I will be better off,

Then my emotions can flow, instead of being held back.

Held back and ignored like I was taught to do.

The lake behind the dam does not exist.

But it does.

I need not fear the crumbling of the dam.

I should embrace it.

I should feel the water flow.

I should feel my emotions.

Then I can learn to accept who I am.
