Sometimes I don't have anything to say

Sometimes I just don't want to say it out loud

No Flaws When You're Pretending

I pretend a lot.
I guess I always have. That's why I got into theatre eventually. I knew how to turn off my thoughts and emotions and take the form of someone else. It was easy.
It's still easy, but I'm not on the stage anymore. I just turn off my emotions in front of everyone else to make things....easier? Smoother? I don't like to talk about my issues because I don't feel like they are worth much when someone else has a problem. I like to rant, sure, but I don't show it all over my face. I don't want people to ask me "how are you?" and know that I'm lying when I say "I'm fine." I'd rather them just take it and go on, since they don't really care if I'm okay or not but if I say I'm not they might feel obligated to stop and listen to me.
Not everyone needs to stop and listen to me.
Deep down, I know there's a lot about me and my life that is not "fine" and should probably be talked about, but I don't necessarily think I want to talk about it all yet. Sometimes I talk, but not everything comes out. I don't know how to tell if it is safe to bring up all my dark and scary secrets.
I wish I knew.

:Poetic Moment:
Just let everything go and
Push away your stress.
Absorb the peace and quiet
Of the garden - distant from the
Reality of the harsh world.
Breath in.
Breath out.

Scared to get attached again
Like you have this fear that
Every person you start to
Like will
Break
Your
Heart
