Poetry By Cheyenne
There's a lot of poetry on here. Happy, sad, funny, horrible, and terrifying.
But it's all poetry, and it's all mine
And I'd love to share it with you
So give it a read!

“Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia.”
― E.L. Doctorow

Talk it Out

Hiding your emotions won't help anyone.
Least of all, you.
Anger, grief, and frustration will hollow you out from the inside,
make you a dry husk of the person you once were.

I'm not saying,
to take them out on the cashier in front of you
or on a random stranger who bumps into you.

No, find someone you can trust,
maybe a therapist
or a hotline to talk to.
Then just let the words rush out in a torrent.

Talk, and keep talking,
and don't mind the tears or the clenched fists.
Those are just part of the process.

By the time you're done,
you'll feel a little empty at first.
Drained and tired.
But maybe a little free, too.
Because now the weight of what you talked about
won't be pressing down upon your shoulders anymore
or clinging to your ankles.

Never be afraid to talk to someone.
Because being overwhelmed and scared
will only harm you
and everyone else.
Your soul can only take so much weathering
by that particular acidicy.

    I love to write, and poetry is one of my favorite ways to figure out what my brain is doing.
