Off My Chest [Poem]

I finally got the chance
to release the stampede
of emotions hiding behind
this fence in my heart.
To let the rushing waves
trapped behind this dam
flow free for once.

But what did I find...

Not open arms or support
I found nothing.
Not even anger

I wasted so much time
wondering...pondering
thinking and over contemplating
just for you to shoot me
down like a baby bird learning
how to fly...thanks for
ripping off my fairly new
wings. I guess I won't
be reaching my dreams tonight.

It's a remedy to get
this mountain of feelings off
my chest. I can breathe again,
live again..but what
does all that mean
without you?
