i dont know what living a balanced life feels like

when i am sad

i dont cry i pour

when i am happy

i dont smile i glow

when i am angry

i dont yell i burn

the good thing about feeling in extremes is

when i love i give them wings

but perhaps that isn’t

such a good thing cause

they always tend to leave

and you should see me

when my heart is broken

i don’t grieve

i shatter
