I Keep Too Many Things to Myself

A storm of thoughts in my mind
Sowed seeds of chaos in my soul
Outside, I hold a shell of serenity
To hide the confusion lately sowed

The fast currents of days carry me away
Pulling me in different directions
Exigent matters threaten to sweep me
Into a swirl of tough moments and moods

If only I could wake up in the mornings
And stand on truths like stones in a river
That could lead me across the chaos in life
I could use a few of those steppingstones.

Why keep them to yourself?

@Sukiesnow Well, it's just the way I am. I tend to internalize things.🙂

@SW-User what helped me might help you. Taking an Improv Course with our Second City really helped bring me out of myself. Everyone was so helpful and understanding...so supportive...and it was [i]so[/i] much fun!
