If I Could Bottle My Sadness by Jayda Marí

Words pour from me

In my darkest hours 

A storm within me spilling

Onto pages dedicated to my 

Deepest feelings 

An ocean of unshed tears 

Filling my lungs 

Waves of emotions, deep 

Enough to drown me 

Strong enough 

To wash away everyone and everything 

Around me 

Some days calm 

Soothing 

Healing

Always unpredictable

If I could bottle my sadness 

Words would surge from me 

When tears no longer flow 

This hurt is my weapon

It touches each page

And sets my words 

Alight
