Whenever I can't say what I want to say, I succumb in silence. I don't know how to express how I feel. I can't seem to find the right words. And I'm afraid of what others would think.
I think of that a lot. Why do I have to be so afraid? Why can't I ignore this fear and do what I want? Am I just overthinking?
Why am I so hesitant? I'm jealous of how courageous others are. They can show who they are and what they feel. They do not worry that things could go wrong.
I want to be able to do that too. People like them are free like nothing weighs them down. They seem so happy with what they're doing. While here I am, afraid on my own.
I think you understand how I feel. It's hard for me to say what I have in mind. I don't know how I can have courage. Am I ashamed of myself?
I probably am. Are you not like me? I want to know if I'm the only one who feels this way. Somehow, I want to know that I am not alone. I might not be.
I hope one day, I would get to have that courage. I want to see myself be free from my thoughts. And I know it will take time, but I have decided. That one day will come true. I'll make it happen.
“Please be patient with me. Sometimes when I'm quiet, it's because I need to figure myself out. It's not because I don't want to talk. Sometimes there are no words for my thoughts.” ― Kamla Bolanos
Why can't we day the words we wanted to say? Why do we hesitate to express what we feel? Should we be ashamed of ourselves?
