NaPoWriMo #6: Uncoiling

Uncoiling

can’t get out the words
spiraling inside.
slow down.
Breathe deeper
Think clearly
Write it out.

Pull out the inside,
from the core,
can’t ignore.

Turn over
Shake it out,
bring emotion
to the fore

Subtlety
beyond depravity.
fight the gravity

That pulls down,
curtains drawn
to reveal the clown,
and his tracks of tears.

Feelings hidden,
white makeup hides
expression
fight the depression.
turn on the fog lights,
as you crawl through the mire.

Find the desire.
Don’t quench the fire.
inner thoughts,
not a liar.

Uncoil
uncoil.
