Favorite Quote:
Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia. ~E.L. Doctorow


Your fingers, trembling
Your heart, racing
Your mind, spinning
Your emotions, escaping

That box you kept locked up,
Now open and everything is pouring out.
You wish you could go back in time
But it’s too late, you’ve unleashed the unthinkable.

Your curiosity, overpowering
Your desire, compelling
Your innocence, thriving
Your emotions, escaping

Fear sets in as you struggle to breathe.
The burden wears down on your conscience.
You try to make up for what you’ve done
But it’s too late, you’ve unleashed the unthinkable.

Your guilt, unending
Your regrets, collecting
Your apologies, flowing
Your emotions, escaping

The world is left ravaged by your act.
Your heart knows it will never be the same.
You wish you could take it all back
But it’s too late, you’ve unleashed the unthinkable.

Your emotions, escaping
Your heart, breaking
Your friendship, fleeting
Your hope, remaining
