Let Them Flow

Ego works like
A cheaply made presure cooker
When your heart is filled with
Sorrow, anger or fear.

Saying that
No one would be on your side,
It tells you to contain
These negative emotions
While it cooks them into
Powerful ticking time bombs.

And it detonates them anyway.

So when you feel sad, angry or afraid,
Simply open the lid and
Let your emotions flow.

It'd make you feel ashamed awhile
But it's better than living with bombs
Ticking forever.

If you try to suppress negative emotions,
You only give them permissions
To stay with you and blow up someday.

So simply let them flow.
When they flow away,
You are free from them.

Let them flow...
