The Price

You know that feeling
Like a thick blanket
A fog over your head
When you push your anger
And frustration away
Because “you have no reason
To be sad, to be angry”
Your emotions are unfounded
You’re just sensitive, overreactive
Easy to break down in tears
But thinking you’re soft
That your emotions
Are out of control
Comes at a price that
You don’t even realize
You are paying
It feels like
You are empty
Confused as to why
You feel this sad
And this angry
